Libertas: fix buffer overflow in lbs_get_essid()

The libertas driver copies the SSID buffer back to the wireless core and
appends a trailing NULL character for termination. This is

a) unnecessary because the buffer is allocated with kzalloc and is hence
   already NULLed when this function is called, and

b) for priv->curbssparams.ssid_len == 32, it writes back one byte too
   much which causes memory corruptions.

Fix this by removing the extra write.
