    tipc: guard against string buffer overrun
    
    [ Upstream commit 6555a2a9212be6983d2319d65276484f7c5f431a ]
    
    Smatch reports that copying media_name and if_name to name_parts may
    overwrite the destination.
    
     .../bearer.c:166 bearer_name_validate() error: strcpy() 'media_name' too large for 'name_parts->media_name' (32 vs 16)
     .../bearer.c:167 bearer_name_validate() error: strcpy() 'if_name' too large for 'name_parts->if_name' (1010102 vs 16)
    
    This does seem to be the case so guard against this possibility by using
    strscpy() and failing if truncation occurs.
    
    Introduced by commit b97bf3fd8f6a ("[TIPC] Initial merge")
    
    Compile tested only.
