The strncpy() function is being deprecated. Replace it by the safer
strscpy() and fix the following Coverity warning:
"Calling strncpy with a maximum size argument of 12 bytes on destination
array version_string of size 12 bytes might leave the destination string
unterminated."
Notice that, unlike strncpy(), strscpy() always null-terminates the
destination string.
