Subject: ipxe: efi: guard strncpy with gcc warning ignore pragma

Using gcc 8 with the -Wstringop-truncation option, and with warnings
treated as errors, the following error is emitted:

util/elf2efi.c:494:2: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 8 equals destination
size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
  strncpy ( ( char * ) new->hdr.Name, name, sizeof ( new->hdr.Name ) );
  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Use gcc pragmas surrounding this line of code which avoid this warning. The
strncpy usage here is correct.
