-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.
Move the conflicting declarations (which in a couple of cases happens
to be in a union, so we're moving the entire unions) to the end of the
corresponding structures. Notice that `struct il_tx_beacon_cmd`,
`struct il4965_tx_resp`, and `struct il3945_tx_beacon_cmd` are flexible
structures, this is structures that contain a flexible-array member.
With these changes fix the following warnings:
11 drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlegacy/common.h:526:11: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
11 drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlegacy/commands.h:2667:31: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
4 drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlegacy/3945.h:131:11: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

Look, I honor your noble goals, but ... it'd be useful if the code
actually worked after :)

You can't just randomly rearrange firmware API. The __packed and __le32
really ought to have given you a hint here.
