perf: Fix off-by-one stack buffer overflow in kallsyms__parse()
In kallsyms__parse(), the loop reading symbol names iterates with i <
sizeof(symbol_name), which allows i to reach sizeof(symbol_name) upon
loop exit. The subsequent symbol_name[i] = '\0' then writes one byte
past the end of the stack-allocated symbol_name[] array.
Fix this by changing the loop bound to KSYM_NAME_LEN, so the null
terminator always lands within the array. The overflow is triggerable by
a kallsyms entry with a symbol name of KSYM_NAME_LEN+1 or more
characters (e.g., long Rust mangled names or a malicious
/proc/kallsyms).
Fixes: 53df2b9344128984 ("libsymbols kallsyms: Parse using io api")
