scsi: lpfc: Use struct_group to isolate cast to larger object

When building under -Warray-bounds, a warning is generated when casting a
u32 into MAILBOX_t (which is larger). This warning is conservative, but
it's not an unreasonable change to make to improve future robustness. Use a
tagged struct_group that can refer to either the specific fields or the
first u32 separately, silencing this warning:

drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_sli.c: In function 'lpfc_reset_barrier':
drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_sli.c:4787:29: error: array subscript 'MAILBOX_t[0]' is partly outside array bounds of 'volatile uint32_t[1]' {aka 'volatile unsigned int[1]'} [-Werror=array-bounds]
 4787 |         ((MAILBOX_t *)&mbox)->mbxCommand = MBX_KILL_BOARD;
      |                             ^~
drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_sli.c:4752:27: note: while referencing 'mbox'
 4752 |         volatile uint32_t mbox;
      |                           ^~~~

There is no change to the resulting executable instruction code.
