replace strncpy with strscpy_pad
The strncpy() function is actively dangerous to use since it may not
NULL-terminate the destination string, resulting in potential memory
content exposures, unbounded reads, or crashes.

In addition, strscpy_pad is more appropriate because it also zero-fills
any remaining space in the destination if the source is shorter than
the provided buffer size.
