strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed the destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1]. In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace strlcpy() here with direct assignment. strlcpy in this file is used to copy fixed-length strings which can be completely avoided by direct assignment and is safe to do so. strlen() is used to return the length of @tbuf.
