codegen: Add a check to array type
If the size is not constant the array has to be allocated in some
way in the output and so there must be a specification for the
output (as default is write into the C structure all data).
The only exceptions are when the length is constant (in this case
a constant length array in the C structure is used) or a pointer
(in this case the pointer allocate the array).
