Fix build with GCC 8: strncpy -> memcpy

Recent gcc 8 trunk emits the warning below,

../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbserver/remote-utils.c:1204:14: error: char* strncpy(char*, const char*, size_t) output truncated before terminating nul copying 6 bytes from a string of the same length [-Werror=stringop-truncation]

This patch fixes it by using memcpy instead of strncpy.

gdb:

2017-11-22  Yao Qi  <yao.qi@linaro.org>

	* cli/cli-decode.c (help_list): Use memcpy instead of strncpy.
	* cp-namespace.c (cp_lookup_transparent_type_loop): Likewise.

gdb/gdbserver:

2017-11-22  Yao Qi  <yao.qi@linaro.org>

	* remote-utils.c (prepare_resume_reply): Use memcpy.
