binfmt_misc: rename Node to struct binfmt_misc_entry

The CamelCase Node typedef is a 1997 leftover and hides that this is
a plain struct. Call it what it is: struct binfmt_misc_entry, matching
struct binfmt_misc that it hangs off of and the entry bit and flag
enums. Drop the typedef, switch the size computations in
create_entry() to sizeof(*e) and adjust the comments that still
referred to the old name.

No functional change.
