Subject: [PATCH V3] ubifs: correct UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN macro definition and improve code clarity

The UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN macro, which defines the maximum length of the UBIFS
debugfs directory name, has an incorrect formula and misleading comments.
The current formula is (3 + 1 + 2*2 + 1), which assumes that both UBI device
number and volume ID are limited to 2 characters. However, UBI device number
ranges from 0 to 31 (2 characters), and volume ID ranges from 0 to 127 (up
to 3 characters).

Although the current code works due to the cancellation of mathematical
errors (9 + 1 = 10, which matches the correct UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN value), it
can lead to confusion and potential issues in the future.

This patch aims to improve the code clarity and maintainability by making
the following changes:

1. Corrects the UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN macro definition to (3 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 1),
accommodating the maximum lengths of both UBI device number and volume ID,
plus the separators and null terminator.
2. Updates the snprintf calls to use UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN instead of
UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN + 1, removing the unnecessary +1.
3. Modifies the error checks to compare against UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN using >=
instead of >, aligning with the corrected macro definition.
4. Removes the redundant +1 in the dfs_dir_name array definitions in ubi.h
and debug.h.

While these changes do not affect the runtime behavior, they make the code
more readable, maintainable, and less prone to future errors.

v2->v3:

- Removes the duplicated UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN and UBIFS_DFS_DIR_NAME macro
definitions in ubifs.h, as they are already defined in debug.h.
