usb: gadget: udc: atmel: Replace snprintf() with the safer scnprintf() variant

Browse Source 
There is a general misunderstanding amongst engineers that {v}snprintf()
returns the length of the data *actually* encoded into the destination
array.  However, as per the C99 standard {v}snprintf() really returns
the length of the data that *would have been* written if there were
enough space for it.  This misunderstanding has led to buffer-overruns
in the past.  It's generally considered safer to use the {v}scnprintf()
variants in their place (or even sprintf() in simple cases).  So let's
do that.
