If debug messages are enabled, the card initialization done in `jr3_pci_auto_attach()` spits out 24 (0x18) debug messages to show the null-terminated copyright string embedded in the firmware, one character at a time, including the ASCII NUL characters at the end. Factor out the copyright display into a new function `jr3_pci_show_copyright()` and re-work it to copy the whole copyright string into a buffer, so that it can be shown with a single debug message. Incidentally, this also removes a checkpatch warning "Avoid multiple line dereference" in the original code.
