perf/x86: Annotate struct bts_buffer with __counted_by()
Add the __counted_by() compiler attribute to the flexible array member
buf to improve access bounds-checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.
Use struct_size() to calculate the number of bytes to allocate for a new
bts_buffer. Compared to offsetof(), struct_size() has additional
compile-time checks (e.g., __must_be_array()).
No functional changes intended.
