[PATCH] leds: lp3952: replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy

[Justin Stitt]

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

We expect `dest` to be NUL-terminated due to its use with dev_err.

lp3952_get_label()'s  dest argument is priv->leds[i].name:
|    acpi_ret = lp3952_get_label(&priv->client->dev, led_name_hdl[i],
|                                priv->leds[i].name);
... which is then assigned to:
|    priv->leds[i].cdev.name = priv->leds[i].name;
... which is used with a format string
|    dev_err(&priv->client->dev,
|            "couldn't register LED %s\n",
|            priv->leds[i].cdev.name);

There is no indication that NUL-padding is required but if it is let's
opt for strscpy_pad.

Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to
the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer
without unnecessarily NUL-padding.
