Coverity points out that the current usage of strncpy to write the
ramblock name allows the field to not have an ending '\0' in case
idstr is already not null-terminated (e.g. if it's larger than 256
bytes).
This is currently harmless because the packet->ramblock field is never
touched again on the source side. The destination side reads only up
to the field's size from the stream and forces the last byte to be 0.
We're still open to a programming error in the future in case this
field is ever passed into a function that expects a null-terminated
string.
Change from strncpy to QEMU's pstrcpy, which puts a '\0' at the end of
the string and doesn't fill the extra space with zeros.
(there's no spillage between iterations of fill_packet because after
commit 87bb9e953e ("migration/multifd: Isolate ram pages packet data")
the packet is always zeroed before filling)

As observed by Philippe, the multifd_ram_unfill_packet() function
currently leaves the MultiFDPacket structure with mixed
endianness. This is harmless, but ultimately not very clean.
Stop touching the received packet and do the necessary work using
stack variables instead.
While here tweak the error strings and fix the space before
semicolons. Also remove the "100 times bigger" comment because it's
just one possible explanation for a size mismatch and it doesn't even
match the code.

The methods are defined at module_init time and don't ever
change. Make them const.

In preparation for adding new payload types to multifd, move most of
the no-compression code into multifd-nocomp.c. Let's try to keep a
semblance of layering by not mixing general multifd control flow with
the details of transmitting pages of ram.
There are still some pieces leftover, namely the p->normal, p->zero,
etc variables that we use for zero page tracking and the packet
allocation which is heavily dependent on the ram code.
