The strncpy function has long been deemed unsafe for use,
in favor of strlcpy or snprintf.
While snprintf is standard and strlcpy is still largely available,
they both have issues regarding error checking and performance.
Both will force reading the source buffer past the requested size
if the input is not a proper c-string, and will return the expected
number of bytes copied, meaning that error checking needs to verify
that the number of bytes copied is not superior to the destination
size.
This contributes to awkward code flow, unclear error checking and
potential issues with malformed input.
The function strscpy has been discussed for some time already and
has been made available in the linux kernel[1].
Propose this new function as a safe alternative.

Removed DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_CRC_STRIP offload flag.
Without any specific Rx offload flag, default behavior by PMDs is to
strip CRC.
PMDs that support keeping CRC should advertise DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC
Rx offload capability.
Applications that require keeping CRC should check PMD capability first
and if it is supported can enable this feature by setting
DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC in Rx offload flag in rte_eth_dev_configure()

There are a lot of cases where vhost-user massage handling

example, allocation failures of shadow used ring and batched

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
