Revert "drm: Use a flexible array member for blob property data"
Using a flexible array for the blob data was a mistake by me. It forces all users of the blob data to cast blob->data to something else. void* is clearly superior so let's go back to the original scheme. Not a clean revert as the code has moved. This reverts commit d63f5e6bf6f2a1573ea39c9937cdf5ab0b3a4b77.
