net: qrtr: replace qrtr_tx_flow radix_tree with xarray to fix memory leak

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: qrtr: replace qrtr_tx_flow radix_tree with xarray to fix memory leak

__radix_tree_create() allocates and links intermediate nodes into the
tree one by one. If a subsequent allocation fails, the already-linked
nodes remain in the tree with no corresponding leaf entry. These orphaned
internal nodes are never reclaimed because radix_tree_for_each_slot()
only visits slots containing leaf values.

The radix_tree API is deprecated in favor of xarray. As suggested by
Matthew Wilcox, migrate qrtr_tx_flow from radix_tree to xarray instead
of fixing the radix_tree itself [1]. xarray properly handles cleanup of
internal nodes — xa_destroy() frees all internal xarray nodes when the
qrtr_node is released, preventing the leak.

CWE-401 Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime

The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, making the memory unavailable for reallocation and reuse.
