[PATCH v2] checkpatch: suppress strscpy warnings for userspace tools

[Suchit Karunakaran]

The checkpatch.pl script currently warns against the use of strcpy, 
strlcpy, and strncpy, recommending strscpy as a safer alternative. 
However, these warnings are also triggered for code under tools/ and 
scripts/, which are userspace utilities where strscpy is not available.
This patch suppresses these warnings for files in tools/ and scripts/.

Signed-off-by: Suchit Karunakaran <suchitkarunakaran@xxxxxxxxx>

Changes since v1:
- Create is_userspace function to check if the file is in userspace
  directories
