drm/radeon: Prefer strscpy over strlcpy in 'radeon_combios_get_power_modes'

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed the
destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to linear
read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated. The safe
replacement is strscpy() [1].

cleanup to remove the strlcpy() function entirely from the kernel [2].

Fixes the following:

WARNING: Prefer strscpy over strlcpy
+                               strlcpy(info.type, name, sizeof(info.type));
