wl1251: Replace strncpy with strscpy in wl1251_acx_fw_version

strncpy() is deprecated [1] for NUL-terminated destination buffers since
it does not guarantee NUL termination. Remove the manual NUL termination
and replace strncpy() with strscpy() to ensure NUL termination of the
destination buffer.

Using strscpy_pad() to retain the NUL-padding behavior of strncpy() is
not needed because ->fw_ver is only used as a C-string.
