[PATCH] atmel: replace deprecated strncpy/strcpy 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. strcpy() is also deprecated [2] and shouldn't be used.

We expect priv->firmware_id to be NUL-terminated based on its usage
with seq_printf() and strlen() in atmel.c:
1420 |       seq_printf(m, "%s loaded by host\n", priv->firmware_id);
...
3884 |       if (strlen(priv->firmware_id) == 0) {

NUL-padding is not required, which is evident by the usage of a plain
strcpy():
3891 |   strcpy(priv->firmware_id, "atmel_at76c502.bin");

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.

Let's also replace hard-coded lengths to be `sizeof(...)` for buffers
that the compiler can detect the size for as this is less error prone.
