tty: n_gsm: 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. We expect nc->if_name to be NUL-terminated based on existing manual NUL-byte assignments and checks: | nc.if_name[IFNAMSIZ-1] = '\0'; ... | if (nc->if_name[0] != '\0') Let's use the new 2-argument strscpy() since it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer while correctly using the destination buffers size to bound the operation.
