Both `strncpy` and `strcpy` are deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]. A suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on its destination buffer argument which is _not_ the case for `strncpy` or `strcpy`! In this case, we can drop both the forced NUL-termination and the `... -1` from: | strncpy(arg, val, ACTION_LEN - 1); as `strscpy` implicitly has this behavior. Also include slight refactor to code removing possible new-line chars as per Yang Yang's work at [3]. This reduces code size and complexity by using more robust and better understood interfaces.
