Allow Obj-C ivars with incomplete array type but only as the last ivar.
Also add a requirement for ivars that contain a flexible array member to
be at the end of class too. It is possible to add in a subclass another
ivar at the end but we'll emit a warning in this case. Also we'll emit a
warning if a variable sized ivar is declared in class extension or in
implementation because subclasses won't know they should avoid adding
new ivars.
In ARC incomplete array objects are treated as __unsafe_unretained so
require them to be marked as such.
Prohibit synthesizing ivars with flexible array members because order of
synthesized ivars is not obvious and tricky to control. Spelling out
ivar explicitly gives control to developers and helps to avoid surprises
with unexpected ivar ordering.
For C and C++ changed diagnostic to tell explicitly a field is not the
last one and point to the next field. It is not as useful as in Obj-C
but it is an improvement and it is consistent with Obj-C. For C for
unions emit more specific err_flexible_array_union instead of generic
err_field_incomplete.

A record which contains a flexible array member is itself a flexible
array member. A struct which contains such a record should also
consider itself to be a flexible array member.

rules: instead of requiring flexible array members to be POD, require them to
be trivially-destructible. This seems to be the only constraint that actually
matters here (and even then, it's questionable whether this matters).

Flexible array members only work out if they are the last field of a
record, however virtual bases would give us many situations where the
flexible array member would overlap with the virtual base fields.
It is unlikely in the extreme that this behavior was intended by the
user so raise a diagnostic instead of accepting. This is will not
reject conforming code because flexible array members are an extension
in C++ mode.
