fs/resctrl: Inform user space when status buffer overflowed

Browse source

resctrl fs commands are becoming more powerful with, for example, a user able
to use syntax like '*' to make broad configuration changes. Such commands that
span multiple domains may result in more than one message printed to the
last_cmd_status buffer with more planned.

Issue "[truncated]" when displaying the last_cmd_status buffer to communicate
if it overflowed. Upon encountering this, user space is expected to combine
details about the failure found in info/last_cmd_status with related resctrl
files to learn the accurate system state after the command failure.
