rust: uaccess: add strncpy_from_user
This patch adds a direct wrapper around the C function of the same name. It's not really intended for direct use by Rust code since strncpy_from_user has a somewhat unfortunate API where it only nul-terminates the buffer if there's space for the nul-terminator. This means that a direct Rust wrapper around it could not return a &CStr since the buffer may not be a cstring. However, we still add the method to build more convenient APIs on top of it, which will happen in subsequent patches. Reviewed-by:Danilo Krummrich <dakr@kernel.org> Reviewed-by:
