I wanted to gather some thoughts on removing `acpi_ut_safe_strncpy` (and
potentially other `acpi...safe...()` interfaces) in favor of
pre-existing interfaces in the kernel (like strscpy).

Running a git blame shows these functions were implemented 10 years ago
and their implementations generally mirror the _newer_ and more robust
stuff in lib/string.h -- Let's just use these, right?

I appreciate any comments and whether or not I should stop at just
`strncpy`.

Thanks
