printk: cleanup deprecated uses of strncpy/strcpy

Cleanup some deprecated uses of strncpy() and strcpy() [1].

There doesn't seem to be any bugs with the current code but the
readability of this code could benefit from a quick makeover while
removing some deprecated stuff as a benefit.

The most interesting replacement made in this patch involves
concatenating "ttyS" with a digit-led user-supplied string. Instead of
doing two distinct string copies with carefully managed offsets and
lengths, let's use the more robust and self-explanatory scnprintf().
scnprintf will 1) respect the bounds of @buf, 2) null-terminate @buf, 3)
do the concatenation. This allows us to drop the manual NUL-byte assignment.

Also, since isdigit() is used about a dozen lines after the open-coded
version we'll replace it for uniformity's sake.

All the strcpy() --> strscpy() replacements are trivial as the source
strings are literals and much smaller than the destination size. No
behavioral change here.

Use the new 2-argument version of strscpy() introduced in Commit
e6584c3964f2f ("string: Allow 2-argument strscpy()"). However, to make
this work fully (since the size must be known at compile time), also
update the extern-qualified declaration to have the proper size
information.
