scsi: target: Replace deprecated strncpy() with strscpy()

strncpy() is deprecated for NUL-terminated destination buffers; use
strscpy() instead. The destination buffer db_root is only used with "%s"
format strings and must therefore be NUL-terminated, but not NUL-padded.

Use scnprintf() because snprintf() could return a value >= DB_ROOT_LEN
and lead to an out-of-bounds access. This doesn't happen because count
is explicitly checked against DB_ROOT_LEN before. However, scnprintf()
always returns the number of characters actually written to the string
buffer, which is always within the bounds of db_root_stage, and should
be preferred over snprintf().

The size parameter of strscpy() is optional and since DB_ROOT_LEN is the
size of the destination buffer, it can be removed. Remove it to simplify
the code.

Compile-tested only.
