kunit/memcpy: Avoid pathological compile-time string size

The memcpy() KUnit tests are trying to sanity-check run-time behaviors,
but tripped compile-time warnings about a pathological condition of a
too-small buffer being used for input. Avoid this by explicitly resizing
the buffer, but leaving the string short. Avoid the following warning:

lib/memcpy_kunit.c: In function 'strtomem_test':
include/linux/string.h:303:42: warning: 'strnlen' specified bound 4 exceeds source size 3 [-Wstringop-overread]
