kheaders: Use array declaration instead of char
Under CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE, memcpy() will check the size of destination
and source buffers. Defining kernel_headers_data as "char" would trip
this check. Since these addresses are treated as byte arrays, define
them as arrays (as done everywhere else).
This was seen with:
$ cat /sys/kernel/kheaders.tar.xz >> /dev/null
detected buffer overflow in memcpy
kernel BUG at lib/string_helpers.c:1027!
