Athira Rajeev d94d86cee1 tools/perf/tests: Fix compilation error with strncpy in tests/tool_pmu
perf fails to compile on systems with GCC version11
as below:

In file included from /usr/include/string.h:519,
                 from /home/athir/perf-tools-next/tools/include/linux/bitmap.h:5,
                 from /home/athir/perf-tools-next/tools/perf/util/pmu.h:5,
                 from /home/athir/perf-tools-next/tools/perf/util/evsel.h:14,
                 from /home/athir/perf-tools-next/tools/perf/util/evlist.h:14,
                 from tests/tool_pmu.c:3:
In function ‘strncpy’,
    inlined from ‘do_test’ at tests/tool_pmu.c:25:3:
/usr/include/bits/string_fortified.h:95:10: error: ‘__builtin_strncpy’ specified bound 128 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
   95 |   return __builtin___strncpy_chk (__dest, __src, __len,
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   96 |                                   __glibc_objsize (__dest));
      |                                   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The compile error is from strncpy refernce in do_test:
	strncpy(str, tool_pmu__event_to_str(ev), sizeof(str));

This behaviour is not observed with GCC version 8, but observed
with GCC version 11 . This is message from gcc for detecting
truncation while using strncpu. Use snprintf instead of strncpy
here to be safe.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
