MIPS: Loongson: Fix potentially wrong string handling

This error was reported by cppcheck:
arch/mips/loongson/common/machtype.c:56: error: Dangerous usage of 'str' (strncpy doesn't always 0-terminate it)

If strncpy copied MACHTYPE_LEN bytes, the destination string str
was not terminated.

The patch adds one more byte to str and makes sure that this byte is
always 0.
