[PATCH v4 3/6] iio: fix potential out-of-bound write

[Markus Burri]

The buffer is set to 20 characters. If a caller write more characters,
count is truncated to the max available space in "simple_write_to_buffer".
To protect from OoB access, check that the input size fit into buffer and
add a zero terminator after copy to the end of the copied data.
