-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:

crypto/drbg.c:1445:27: 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 char ctx[]; onto the FAM struct
shash_desc::__ctx,[] 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 corresponding structures --no
blank line in between.
