Series Manual replacement of all strlcpy in favor of strscpy | expand

Commit Message

The strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first, it is dangerous if
the source buffer lenght is unbounded or possibility non NULL-terminated.
It can lead to linear read overflows, crashes, etc...

As recommended in the deprecated interfaces [1], it should be replaced
by strscpy.

This commit replaces all calls to strlcpy that handle the return values
by the corresponding strscpy calls with new handling of the return
values (as it is quite different between the two functions).

Hi Romain-

I assume you are waiting for a maintainer's Ack? IMHO Trond or Anna
should provide it for changes to this particular source file.

Hey,

Yeah, but I think it can wait for v2, I am preparing a v2 series with a
better explanation in the commit message
and few improvements.

Thanks,
Romain
