I made it to stress that length of string fits in one byte.
(struct ustr->u_len is uint8_t)

You are right. I broke length calculation.

But observe that:
- when size == 1:
dest->u_len = ptr[1 - 1], but at ptr[0] there's cmpID,
so we create string with wrong length
- when size > 1 and size < UDF_NAME_LEN:
we set u_len correctly, but memcpy copies one needless byte
- when size == UDF_NAME_LEN - 1:
memcpy overwrites u_len - with correct value, but...
- when size >= UDF_NAME_LEN:
we copy UDF_NAME_LEN - 1 bytes, but dest->u_name is array
of UDF_NAME_LEN - 2 bytes, so we are overwriting u_len with
character from input string

So if I didn't mess up someting, correct change would look like this:
---
udf: fix udf_build_ustr

udf_build_ustr was broken when
size >= UDF_NAME_LEN or size < 2

nobody noticed because all callers set size
to acceptable values (constants whitin range)
