[PATCH linux-next v2] accessibility: speakup: use strscpy() to instead of strncpy()

[PATCH linux-next v2] accessibility: speakup: use strscpy() to instead of strncpy()

[yang.yang29]

From: Xu Panda <xu.panda@zte.com.cn>

The implementation of strscpy() is more robust and safer.
That's now the recommended way to copy NUL terminated strings.

change for v2
 - fix the mistake of eating one character when len > 250,
thanks to Samuel Thibault.
