The -Wstringop-truncation handling for strncpy/stpncpy neglects

one when computing the size of each sequence to account for
the nul.  This leads to false positive warnings when checking
the validity of indices/pointers computed by the built-ins.

The attached patch corrects this by adding one for the nul
only when the character array is known to be nul-terminated.

Since GCC 7 does not issue the warning this is a 8/9 regression
that I would like to fix in both releases.  Is the patch okay
for trunk/gcc-8-branch?

Tested on x86_64-linux.

OK for the trunk as well as the affected release branches.

I just noticed some some -Wrestrict test failures that I had missed
in the test report.  The patch wasn't quite right.  Sorry about that.
I'll fix it shortly.
