video: hdmi: prefer length specifier in format over string copying
strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. It looks like the main use of strncpy() here is to limit the amount of bytes printed from hdmi_log() by using a tmp buffer and limiting the number of bytes copied. Really, we should use the %.<len>s format qualifier to achieve this.
