    tools/libxc: fix strncpy size
    
    gcc-8 warns about possible truncation of trailing '\0'.
    Final character is overridden by '\0' anyway, so don't bother to copy
    it.
    
    This fixes compile failure:
    
        xc_pm.c: In function 'xc_set_cpufreq_gov':
        xc_pm.c:308:5: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 16 equals destination 
size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
             strncpy(scaling_governor, govname, CPUFREQ_NAME_LEN);
             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
