qed: replace uses of strncpy
strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings
[1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string
interfaces.
This patch eliminates three uses of strncpy():
Firstly, `dest` is expected to be NUL-terminated which is evident by the
manual setting of a NUL-byte at size - 1. For this use specifically,
strscpy() is a viable replacement due to the fact that it guarantees
NUL-termination on the destination buffer.
The next two cases should simply be memcpy() as the size of the src
string is always 3 and the destination string just wants the first 3
bytes changed.
To be clear, there are no buffer overread bugs in the current code as
the sizes and offsets are carefully managed such that buffers are
NUL-terminated. However, with these changes, the code is now more robust
and less ambiguous (and hopefully easier to read).
