Subject: [PATCH] fs: ecryptfs: replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy

strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings
[1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string
interfaces. A good alternative is strscpy() as it guarantees
NUL-termination on the destination buffer.

In crypto.c:
We expect cipher_name to be NUL-terminated based on its use with
the C-string format specifier %s and with other string apis like
strlen():
|	printk(KERN_ERR "Error attempting to initialize key TFM "
|		"cipher with name = [%s]; rc = [%d]\n",
|		tmp_tfm->cipher_name, rc);
and
|	int cipher_name_len = strlen(cipher_name);

In main.c:
We can remove the manual NUL-byte assignments as well as the pointers to
destinations (which I assume only existed to trim down on line length?)
in favor of directly using the destination buffer which allows the
compiler to get size information -- enabling the usage of the new
2-argument strscpy().

Note that this patch relies on the _new_ 2-argument versions of
strscpy() and strscpy_pad() introduced in Commit e6584c3964f2f ("string:
Allow 2-argument strscpy()").
