[PATCH net-next v4] keys, dns: Drop unused NUL terminator from upayload->data

[Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>]

upayload->data includes an extra NUL terminator even though it is never
used as a C string. In-tree users access only the first
upayload->datalen bytes.

Remove the redundant NUL terminator and allocate one byte less for
upayload->data in dns_resolver_preparse().
