show show_smap_vma_flags() has been a using misspelled initializer in
mnemonics[] - it needed to initialize 2 element array of char and it used
NUL-padded 2 character string literals (i.e. 3-element initializer).
This has been spotted by gcc-15[*]; prior to that gcc quietly dropped the
3rd eleemnt of initializers. To fix this we are increasing the size of
mnemonics[] (from mnemonics[BITS_PER_LONG][2] to
mnemonics[BITS_PER_LONG][3]) to accomodate the NUL-padded string literals.
This also helps us in simplyfying the logic for printing of the flags as
instead of printing each character from the mnemonics[], we can just print
the mnemonics[] using seq_printf.

Stephen pointed out:
: The C standard explicitly allows for a string initializer to be too long
: due to the NUL byte at the end ... so this warning may be overzealous.
but let's make the warning go away anwyay.
