null_blk: replace strncpy with strscpy

`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1].

We should favor a more robust and less ambiguous interface.

We expect that both `nullb->disk_name` and `disk->disk_name` be
NUL-terminated:
|     snprintf(nullb->disk_name, sizeof(nullb->disk_name),
|              "%s", config_item_name(&dev->group.cg_item));
...
|       pr_info("disk %s created\n", nullb->disk_name);

It seems like NUL-padding may be required due to __assign_disk_name()
utilizing a memcpy as opposed to a `str*cpy` api.
| static inline void __assign_disk_name(char *name, struct gendisk *disk)
| {
| 	if (disk)
| 		memcpy(name, disk->disk_name, DISK_NAME_LEN);
| 	else
| 		memset(name, 0, DISK_NAME_LEN);
| }

Then we go and print it with `__print_disk_name` which wraps `nullb_trace_disk_name()`.
| #define __print_disk_name(name) nullb_trace_disk_name(p, name)

This function obviously expects a NUL-terminated string.
| const char *nullb_trace_disk_name(struct trace_seq *p, char *name)
| {
| 	const char *ret = trace_seq_buffer_ptr(p);
|
| 	if (name && *name)
| 		trace_seq_printf(p, "disk=%s, ", name);
| 	trace_seq_putc(p, 0);
|
| 	return ret;
| }

>From the above, we need both 1) a NUL-terminated string and 2) a
NUL-padded string. So, let's use strscpy_pad() as per Kees' suggestion
from v1.
