struct mwifiex_ie_types_chan_list_param_set::chan_scan_param is treated
as a flexible array, so convert it into one so that it doesn't trip
the array bounds sanitizer[1]. Only a few places were using sizeof()
on the whole struct, so adjust those to follow the calculation pattern
to avoid including the trailing single element.
Examining binary output differences doesn't appear to show any literal
size values changing, though it is obfuscated a bit by the compiler
adjusting register usage and stack spill slots, etc.

TLV and one-element arrays are always tricky to transform (into flex arrays),
but (unless I'm missing something that the maintainers might point out) this
looks good to me.
