[PATCH] initramfs: Reduce hardlink hash allocation sizes

[Thorsten Blum]

Each hardlink hash entry reserves N_ALIGN(PATH_MAX) bytes for its name.
This makes every allocation larger than 4 KiB, placing it in the
kmalloc-8k bucket even for short names.

Use a flexible array with the already validated cpio name_len to reduce
allocation sizes.

Also use const for the read-only name parameter.

Tested with initramfs KUnit suite: all 9 tests pass.
