selftests/bpf: Add simple strscpy() implementation

Replace bpf_strlcpy() in bpf_util.h with a sized_strscpy(), which is a
simplified sized_strscpy() from the kernel (lib/string.c [1]). It:
  * takes a count (destination size) parameter
  * guarantees NULL-termination
  * returns the number of characters copied or -E2BIG

Re-define strscpy macro similar to in-kernel implementation [2]: allow
the count parameter to be optional.

Add #ifdef-s to tools/include/linux/args.h, as they may be defined in
other system headers (for example, __CONCAT in sys/cdefs.h).

Fixup the single existing bpf_strlcpy() call in cgroup_helpers.c
