[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] examples/ip_pipeline: fix buffer not null terminated

[Reshma Pattan <reshma.pattan@intel.com>]

Copying source string of length equal to sizeof(kni->name)
will not append the NULL to destination string.

Using strlcpy in place of strncpy fixes this issue as
strlcpy guarantees NULL termination.

Coverity issue: 272562
Fixes: 9a408cc8ac ("examples/ip_pipeline: add KNI object")
