PATCH 1/1 flow_dissector: Fix out-of-bounds warnings

Fix the following out-of-bounds warnings:

The problem is that the original code is trying to copy data into a couple of struct members adjacent to each other in a single call to memcpy(). So, the compiler legitimately complains about it. As these are just a couple of members, fix this by copying each one of them in separate calls to memcpy().

This helps with the ongoing efforts to globally enable -Warray-bounds and get us closer to being able to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE routines on memcpy().
