virt: vbox: uapi: Mark inner unions in packed structs as packed
The unpacked unions within a packed struct generates alignment warnings
on clang for 32-bit ARM:

./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:239:4: error: field u within 'struct vmmdev_hgcm_function_parameter32'
  is less aligned than 'union (unnamed union at ./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:223:2)'
  and is usually due to 'struct vmmdev_hgcm_function_parameter32' being packed,
  which can lead to unaligned accesses [-Werror,-Wunaligned-access]
     239 |         } u;
         |           ^

./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:254:6: error: field u within
  'struct vmmdev_hgcm_function_parameter64::(anonymous union)::(unnamed at ./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:249:3)'
  is less aligned than 'union (unnamed union at ./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:251:4)' and is usually due to
  'struct vmmdev_hgcm_function_parameter64::(anonymous union)::(unnamed at ./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:249:3)'
  being packed, which can lead to unaligned accesses [-Werror,-Wunaligned-access]

With the recent changes to compile-test the UAPI headers in more cases,
these warning in combination with CONFIG_WERROR breaks the build.

Fix the warnings.
