strcpy() is deprecated; use strscpy() and memcpy() instead and remove several manual NUL-terminations.
In parse_grep(), we can safely use memcpy() because we already know the length of the source string 'cp' and that it is guaranteed to be NUL-terminated within the first KDB_GREP_STRLEN bytes. Since the destination buffers 'cmd_cur' and 'cmd_hist[cmd_head]' have the fixed length CMD_BUFLEN, strscpy() automatically determines their size using sizeof() when the size argument is omitted. This makes the explicit size arguments for the existing strscpy() calls unnecessary, remove them. No functional changes intended.
