perf data: Fix 'strncat may truncate' build failure with recent gcc
[ Upstream commit 97acec7df172cd1e450f81f5e293c0aa145a2797 ] This strncat() is safe because the buffer was allocated with zalloc(), however gcc doesn't know that. Since the string always has 4 non-null bytes, just use memcpy() here.
