Zero-length arrays are deprecated[1]. Replace struct uni_screen's
"lines" 0-length array with a flexible array. Detected with GCC 13,

Perhaps I am missing something, but why don't we simply have:
char32_t **uni_screen_lines;
? And even if we don't, we should likely convert to array_size() on the
alloc site.
And a side note: what's actually the purpose of all that
NO_VC_UNI_SCREEN and closely connected get_vc_uniscr()?
