[PATCH v3] ALSA: control-led: use strscpy in set_led_id()

The use of strncpy() in the set_led_id() was incorrect.
The len variable should use 'min(sizeof(buf2) - 1, count)'
expression.

Use strscpy() function to simplify things and handle the error gracefully.

Fixes: a135dfb5de15 ("ALSA: led control - add sysfs kcontrol LED marking layer")
