netsmb: Fix buggy/racy smb_strdupin()

smb_strdupin() tried to roll a copyin() based strlen to allocate a buffer
and then blindly copyin that size.  Of course, a malicious user program
could simultaneously manipulate the buffer, resulting in a non-terminated
string being copied.

Later assumptions in the code rely upon the string being nul-terminated.

Just use copyinstr() and drop the racy sizing.
