It's incorrect to restrict strncmp to the length of the command line input
parameter, as then a user passing a rune like:

% xen-livepatch up foo.livepatch

Would match against the "upload" command, because the string comparison has
been truncated to the length of the input argument.  Instead the truncation
should be done based on the length of the command name stored in the internal
array of actions.
