libbpf: Add sane strncpy alternative and use it internally

strncpy() has a notoriously error-prone semantics which makes GCC
complain about it a lot (and quite often completely completely falsely
at that). Instead of pleasing GCC all the time (-Wno-stringop-truncation
is unfortunately only supported by GCC, so it's a bit too messy to just
enable it in Makefile), add libbpf-internal libbpf_strlcpy() helper
which follows what FreeBSD's strlcpy() does and what most people would
expect from strncpy(): copies up to N-1 first bytes from source string
into destination string and ensures zero-termination afterwards.

Replace all the relevant uses of strncpy/strncat/memcpy in libbpf with
libbpf_strlcpy().

This also fixes the issue reported by Emmanuel Deloget in xsk.c where
memcpy() could access source string beyond its end.
