wifi: mac80211: fix UBSAN noise in ieee80211_prep_hw_scan()

When testing the previous patch with CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS, I've
noticed the following:

UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in net/mac80211/scan.c:372:4
index 0 is out of range for type 'struct ieee80211_channel *[]'
CPU: 0 PID: 1435 Comm: wpa_supplicant Not tainted 6.9.0+ #1
Hardware name: LENOVO 20UN005QRT/20UN005QRT <...BIOS details...>

 ...<the rest is not too useful...>

Since '__ieee80211_start_scan()' leaves 'hw_scan_req->req.n_channels'
uninitialized, actual boundaries of 'hw_scan_req->req.channels' can't
be checked in 'ieee80211_prep_hw_scan()'. Although an initialization
of 'hw_scan_req->req.n_channels' introduces some confusion around
allocated vs. used VLA members, this shouldn't be a problem since
everything is correctly adjusted soon in 'ieee80211_prep_hw_scan()'.

Cleanup 'kmalloc()' math in '__ieee80211_start_scan()' by using the
convenient 'struct_size()' as well.
