PATCH 1/1 wifi: ath12k: Avoid -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warnings

-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are getting ready to enable it, globally.

Move the conflicting declaration to the end of the structure. Notice that struct ieee80211_chanctx_conf is a flexible structure --a structure that contains a flexible-array member.

Also, remove an unused structure.

Fix the following warnings:
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/core.h:290:39: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end] drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/dp.h:1499:24: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

Should I add a similar comment as with the ath11k patch:
