LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_GET_NAME was developed in the liveupdate/next branch
while the session type validation change was carried in liveupdate-fixes.
When the conflict between the two branches was resolved, the GET_NAME
operation descriptor picked up the structure and last member from
RETRIEVE_FD.

This makes both its known size and minimum size 16 bytes rather than 72.
A zero-initialized request still succeeds because luo_session_get_name()
writes the full name before luo_ucmd_respond() copies the full GET_NAME
response to userspace. However, copy_struct_from_user() treats the
output-only name field as unknown trailing data and rejects the request
with -E2BIG if any byte in that field is nonzero.

Use the GET_NAME structure and its name field in the descriptor.

* [PATCH v2 2/2] liveupdate: reject nonzero reserved value for SESSION_FINISH

From: Jackie Liu <liuyun01@kylinos.cn>

The UAPI documents liveupdate_session_finish::reserved as requiring zero,
but luo_session_finish() currently ignores it and finishes the session.
Accepting nonzero values prevents the field from being safely repurposed
by a future extension.

Reject nonzero reserved values before changing session state, matching
LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_GET_NAME.
