Subject: [PATCH 2/3] pam_slurm_adopt: send_user_msg: don't copy undefined data
 into message

Using memcpy, an amount of undefined data from the stack will be copied
into the target buffer. While pam_conv probably doesn't evalute the
extra data it still unclean to do that. It could lead up to an
information leak somewhen.
