linux-user: keep the name-ending parenthesis in /proc/self/stat

When the program name is very long, qemu-user may truncate it in
/proc/self/stat. However the truncation must keep the ending ") "
to conform to the proc manpage which says:
    (2) comm  %s
           The  filename of the executable, in parentheses.  This
           is visible whether or not the  executable  is  swapped
           out.

To reproduce:
$ ln -s /bin/cat <filenamewithmorethan128chars>
$ qemu-x86_64 ./<filenamewithmorethan128chars> /proc/self/stat

Before the patch, you get:
1134631 (<filenametruncated>0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ...
After the patch:
1134631 (<filenametruncat>) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ...

This fixes an issue with hwloc failing to parse /proc/self/stat
when Ludovic Courtes was testing it in guix over qemu-aarch64.
