apparmor: Fix string overrun due to missing termination

When booting Ubuntu 26.04 with Linux 7.0-rc4 on an ARM64 Qualcomm Snapdragon X1 we see a string buffer overrun:

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
