Summary

In hw.vmm.create sysctl handler the maximum length of vm name is
VM_MAX_NAMELEN. However in vm_create() the maximum length allowed is
only VM_MAX_NAMELEN - 1 chars. Bump the length of the internal buffer to
allow the length of VM_MAX_NAMELEN for vm name.

I suspect this results in some padding now? Perhaps it would be best to move this field below the vcpu[] array at least?

It does not create padding with default SPECNAMELEN on FreeBSD 12 and 13, but might be the case for other SPECNAMELEN values.
