libbpf: Avoid reading past ELF data section end when copying license
Fix possible read beyond ELF "license" data section if the license string is not properly zero-terminated. Use the fact that libbpf_strlcpy never accesses the (N-1)st byte of the source string because it's replaced with '\0' anyways. If this happens, it's a violation of contract between libbpf and a user, but not handling this more robustly upsets CIFuzz, so given the fix is trivial, let's fix the potential issue.
