[U-Boot] [PATCH] net: tftp: silence a subscript above array bounds compile time warning

For strncpy() select a minimal string length of destination and source strings, here DEFAULT_NAME_LEN is preferable to MAX_LEN.
Due to the NUL-terminated contents of default_string the change is a noop, however it removes a compilation warning if SH2/3/4 platform specific strncpy() function is used:
