i2c: cp2615: replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy
`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]. We should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. We expect name to be NUL-terminated based on its numerous uses with functions that expect NUL-terminated strings. For example in i2c-core-base.c +1533: | dev_dbg(&adap->dev, "adapter [%s] registered\n", adap->name); NUL-padding is not required as `adap` is already zero-alloacted with: | adap = devm_kzalloc(&usbif->dev, sizeof(struct i2c_adapter), GFP_KERNEL); With the above in mind, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding.
