perf jvmti: Address gcc string overflow warning for strncpy()



We are getting false positive gcc warning when we compile with gcc9 (9.1.1):

     CC       jvmti/libjvmti.o
   In file included from /usr/include/string.h:494,
                    from jvmti/libjvmti.c:5:
   In function ‘strncpy’,
       inlined from ‘copy_class_filename.constprop’ at jvmti/libjvmti.c:166:3:
   /usr/include/bits/string_fortified.h:106:10: error: ‘__builtin_strncpy’ specified bound depends on the length of the source argument [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
     106 |   return __builtin___strncpy_chk (__dest, __src, __len, __bos (__dest));
         |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   jvmti/libjvmti.c: In function ‘copy_class_filename.constprop’:
   jvmti/libjvmti.c:165:26: note: length computed here
     165 |   size_t file_name_len = strlen(file_name);
         |                          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

As per Arnaldo's suggestion use strlcpy(), which does the same thing and keeps
gcc silent.
