lavd/v4l2: detect device name truncation

Silences the following warning with gcc 10:
src/libavdevice/v4l2.c: In function ‘v4l2_get_device_list’:
src/libavdevice/v4l2.c:1042:64: warning: ‘%s’ directive output may be truncated writing up to 255 bytes into a region of size 251 [-Wformat-truncation=]
 1042 |         ret = snprintf(device_name, sizeof(device_name), "/dev/%s", entry->d_name);
      |                                                                ^~
src/libavdevice/v4l2.c:1042:15: note: ‘snprintf’ output between 6 and 261 bytes into a destination of size 256
 1042 |         ret = snprintf(device_name, sizeof(device_name), "/dev/%s", entry->d_name);
      |               ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Previous patches intending to silence it have proposed increasing the
buffer size, but doing that correctly seems to be tricky. Failing on
truncation is simpler and just as effective (as excessively long device
names are unlikely).
