'recv()' fills the 'buf', later 'strlcpy()' used to copy from this buffer.
But as coverity warns 'recv()' doesn't guarantee that 'buf' is
null-terminated, but 'strlcpy()' requires it.

Enlarge 'buf' size to 'EAL_UEV_MSG_LEN + 1' and ensure the last one can
be set to 0 when received buffer size is EAL_UEV_MSG_LEN.

CID 375864:  Memory - illegal accesses  (STRING_NULL)
Passing unterminated string "buf" to "dev_uev_parse", which expects
a null-terminated string.

Coverity issue: 375864
Fixes: 0d0f478d0483 ("eal/linux: add uevent parse and process")
