ALSA: mixart: Replace one-element arrays with simple object declarations

One-element arrays are deprecated, and we are replacing them with flexible
array members instead. However, in this case it seems those one-element
arrays have never actually been used as fake flexible arrays.

See this code that dates from Linux-2.6.12-rc2 initial git repository build
(commit 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")):

sound/pci/mixart/mixart_core.h:
 215 struct mixart_stream_state_req
 216 {
 217         u32                 delayed;
 218         u64                 scheduler;
 219         u32                 reserved4np[3];
 220         u32                 stream_count;  /* set to 1 for instance */
 221         struct mixart_flow_info  stream_info;   /* could be an array[stream_count] */
 222 } __attribute__((packed));

sound/pci/mixart/mixart.c:
 388
 389         memset(&stream_state_req, 0, sizeof(stream_state_req));
 390         stream_state_req.stream_count = 1;
 391         stream_state_req.stream_info.stream_desc.uid_pipe = stream->pipe->group_uid;
 392         stream_state_req.stream_info.stream_desc.stream_idx = stream->substream->number;
 393

So, taking the code above as example, replace multiple one-element
arrays with simple object declarations, and refactor the rest of the
code, accordingly.

This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE
routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally
enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].

This results in no differences in binary output.
