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

Use the new TRAILING_OVERLAP() helper to fix the following warning:

fs/ocfs2/xattr.c:52:41: warning: structure containing a flexible array member 
is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

This helper creates a union between a flexible-array member (FAM) and a
set of MEMBERS that would otherwise follow it.

This overlays the trailing MEMBER struct ocfs2_extent_rec er; onto the
FAM struct ocfs2_xattr_value_root::xr_list.l_recs[], while keeping the
FAM and the start of MEMBER aligned.

The static_assert() ensures this alignment remains, and it's
intentionally placed inmediately after the related structure --no
blank line in between.
