Fix possible read beyond ELF "license" data section if the license
string is not properly zero-terminated. Use the fact that libbpf_strlcpy
never accesses the (N-1)st byte of the source string because it's
replaced with '\0' anyways.
If this happens, it's a violation of contract between libbpf and a user,
but not handling this more robustly upsets CIFuzz, so given the fix is
trivial, let's fix the potential issue.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
