PATCH 1/1 Input: Annotate struct input_leds with __counted_by

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions).

As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct input_leds.
