Fix buffer size warning for strcpy

To meet requirements of Common Criteria certification vulnerability
assessment. Static code analysis has been run and found the following
error:
buffer_size_warning: Calling "strncpy" with a maximum size
argument of 16 bytes on destination array "ve->name" of
size 16 bytes might leave the destination string unterminated.
https://people.redhat.com/ncroxon/mdadm-4.2-rc2-scan-results.html

The change is to make the destination size to fit the allocated size.

V5:
Simplify the the strnlen call.

V4:
Code cleanup of the interim "if" statement.

V3: Doc change only:
The code change from filling ve->name with spaces to filling it with
null-terminated is to comform to the SNIA - Common RAID Disk Data
Format Specification. The format for VD_Name (ve->name) specifies
the field to be either ASCII or UNICODE. Bit 2 of the VD_Type field
MUST be used to determine the Unicode or ASCII format of this field.
If this field is not used, all bytes MUST be set to zero.

V2: Change from zero-terminated to zero-padded on memset and
change from using strncpy to memcpy, feedback from Neil Brown.
