Hi,

Make it possible for strscpy() and strscpy_pad() to use 2 arguments,
making "sizeof(dst)" be the the default 3rd argument for the destination
size. This can make future usage much easier to read. Additionally allows
treewide changes to save a bunch of lines:

  string: Allow 2-argument strscpy_pad()
  um: Convert strscpy() usage to 2-argument style
