Add a new option -fstrict-flex-arrays[=n] and new attribute strict_flex_array

Add the following new option -fstrict-flex-arrays[=n] and a corresponding
attribute strict_flex_array to GCC:

'-fstrict-flex-arrays'
     Control when to treat the trailing array of a structure as a flexible array
     member for the purpose of accessing the elements of such an array.
     The positive form is equivalent to '-fstrict-flex-arrays=3', which is the
     strictest.  A trailing array is treated as a flexible array member only when
     it declared as a flexible array member per C99 standard onwards.
     The negative form is equivalent to '-fstrict-flex-arrays=0', which is the
     least strict.  All trailing arrays of structures are treated as flexible
     array members.

'-fstrict-flex-arrays=LEVEL'
     Control when to treat the trailing array of a structure as a flexible array
     member for the purpose of accessing the elements of such an array.  The value
     of LEVEL controls the level of strictness

     The possible values of LEVEL are the same as for the
     'strict_flex_array' attribute (*note Variable Attributes::).

     You can control this behavior for a specific trailing array field
     of a structure by using the variable attribute 'strict_flex_array'
     attribute (*note Variable Attributes::).

'strict_flex_array (LEVEL)'
     The 'strict_flex_array' attribute should be attached to the trailing
     array field of a structure. It controls when to treat the trailing array
     field of a structure as a flexible array member for the purposes of accessing
     the elements of such an array. LEVEL must be an integer betwen 0 to 3.

     LEVEL=0 is the least strict level, all trailing arrays of
     structures are treated as flexible array members.  LEVEL=3 is the
     strictest level, only when the trailing array is declared as a
     flexible array member per C99 standard onwards ('[]'), it is
     treated as a flexible array member.

     There are two more levels in between 0 and 3, which are provided to
     support older codes that use GCC zero-length array extension
     ('[0]') or one-element array as flexible array members('[1]'): When
     LEVEL is 1, the trailing array is treated as a flexible array member
     when it is declared as either '[]', '[0]', or '[1]'; When
     LEVEL is 2, the trailing array is treated as a flexible array member
     when it is declared as either '[]', or '[0]'.

     This attribute can be used with or without the
     '-fstrict-flex-arrays'.  When both the attribute and the option
     present at the same time, the level of the strictness for the
     specific trailing array field is determined by the attribute.
