> We currently get a warning while compiling HDFS native client -
> {code}
> [WARNING] /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/string_fortified.h:106:10: 
> warning: '__builtin_strncpy' output truncated before terminating nul copying 
> as many bytes from a string as its length [-Wstringop-truncation]
> {code}
> The scenario here is such that the copied string is deliberately not null 
> terminated, so that we append a custom character appropriately. The warning 
> reported by strncpy is valid, but not applicable in this scenario. Thus, we 
> need to use memcpy which doesn't mind if the string is null terminated or not.
