Fix ubsan build

I tried a build using the undefined behavior sanitizer, and gcc gave
this error:

In file included from /usr/include/string.h:495,
                 from ../gnulib/import/string.h:41,
                 from ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/../gdbsupport/common-defs.h:95,
                 from ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/nat/linux-osdata.c:20:

This patch fixes the problem by subtracting one from the length
parameter to strncpy.

I changed a couple of other similar functions -- gcc does not warn
about these, but I didn't see any substantial difference between the
different cases, and I think these are just latent warnings, to be
triggered in the future by a change to inlining heuristics.
