Userland: Prefer strlcpy over strncpy in ifconfig, fixes off-by-one

Browse source 
A malicious caller of ifconfig could have caused the ifr_name field to
lack NUL-termination. I don't think this was an actual problem, though, as
the Kernel always forces NUL-termination by overwriting ifr_name's last byte
with NUL.

However, it feels better to do it properly.
