Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] stddef: Allow attributes to be used when creating flex arrays

With the coming support for the __counted_by struct member attribute,
we will need a way to add such annotations to the places where
DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() is used. Add an optional 3rd argument that can be
used for including attributes in the flexible array definition.
