liveupdate: safely print untrusted strings

Patch series "liveupdate: Fix module unloading and unregister API", v3.

This patch series addresses an issue with how LUO handles module reference
counting and unregistration during a module unload (e.g., via rmmod).

Currently, modules that register live update file handlers are pinned for
the entire duration they are registered.  This prevents the modules from
being unloaded gracefully, even when no live update session is in
progress.

Furthermore, if a module is forcefully unloaded, the unregistration
functions return an error (e.g.  -EBUSY) if a session is active, which is
ignored by the kernel's module unload path, leaving dangling pointers in
the LUO global lists.

To resolve these issues, this series introduces the following changes:
1. Adds a global read-write semaphore (luo_register_rwlock) to protect
   the registration lists for both file handlers and FLBs.
2. Reduces the scope of module reference counting for file handlers and
   FLBs. Instead of pinning modules indefinitely upon registration,
   references are now taken only when they are actively used in a live
   update session (e.g., during preservation, retrieval, or
   deserialization).
3. Removes the global luo_session_quiesce() mechanism since module
   unload behavior now handles active sessions implicitly.
4. Introduces auto-unregistration of FLBs during file handler
   unregistration to prevent leaving dangling resources.
5. Changes the unregistration functions to return void instead of
   an error code.
6. Fixes a data race in luo_flb_get_private() by introducing a spinlock
   for thread-safe lazy initialization.
7. Strengthens security by using %.*s when printing untrusted deserialized
   compatible strings and session names to prevent out-of-bounds reads.

This patch (of 10):

Deserialized strings from KHO data (such as file handler compatible
strings and session names) are provided by the previous kernel and might
not be null-terminated if the data is corrupted or maliciously crafted.

When printing these strings in error messages, use the %.*s format
specifier with the maximum buffer size to prevent out-of-bounds reads into
adjacent kernel memory.
