In plpks_gen_wrapping_key() and plpks_wrap_object(), strlen(var.name) is
used to initialize var.namelen within the same struct initializer. This
references a member of var before initialization of var is complete.
Use the compile-time length of PLPKS_DEFAULT_WRAPKEY_LABEL instead.

Module")

Tested on ppc64le PowerVM LPARs on firmware with wrap/unwrap support,
with and without Secure Boot enabled.
Verified that PKWM initialisation and trusted key seal/unseal work
correctly with the compile-time label length fix in place.
