Subject: [PATCH] scsi: message: fusion: replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy_pad

`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings
[1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string
interfaces.

Since all these structs are copied out to userspace let's keep them
NUL-padded by using `strscpy_pad` which guarantees NUL-termination of
the destination buffer while also providing the NUL-padding behavior
that strncpy has.

Let's also opt to use the more idiomatic strscpy usage of:
`dest, src, sizeof(dest)` in cases where the compiler can determine the
size of the destination buffer. Do this for all cases of strscpy...() in
this file.

To be abundantly sure we don't leak stack data out to user space let's
also change a strscpy to strscpy_pad. This strscpy was introduced in
Commit dbe37c71d1246ec2 ("scsi: message: fusion: Replace all
non-returning strlcpy() with strscpy()")

Note that since we are creating these structs with a copy_from_user()
and modifying fields and then copying back out to the user it is
probably OK not to explicitly NUL-pad everything as any data leak is
probably just data from the user themselves. If this is too eager, let's
opt for `strscpy` which is still in the spirit of removing deprecated
strncpy usage treewide.
