selftests/user_events: fix type cast for write_index packed member in perf_test

Accessing 'reg.write_index' directly triggers a -Waddress-of-packed-member
warning due to potential unaligned pointer access:

perf_test.c:239:38: warning: taking address of packed member 'write_index'
of class or structure 'user_reg' may result in an unaligned pointer value
[-Waddress-of-packed-member]
  239 |         ASSERT_NE(-1, write(self->data_fd, &reg.write_index,
      |                                             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Since write(2) works with any alignment. Casting '&reg.write_index'
explicitly to 'void *' to suppress this warning.
