apparmor: Replace deprecated strcpy in d_namespace_path
strcpy() is deprecated; replace it with a direct '/' assignment. The buffer is already NUL-terminated, so there is no need to copy an additional NUL terminator as strcpy() did. Update the comment and add the local variable 'is_root' for clarity.
