pspax: fix buffer limiting in cmdline reading
The current scanf format tries to use "%s.1023" to limit reading to 1023
bytes, but that doesn't actually work -- the maximum field width is between
the "%" and the "s", so it should have been "%1023s". This ends up working
anyways because the %s stops reading when it hits NUL or a space. Normally
cmdline is NUL delimited which means argv[0] would have to be 1024+ bytes
inorder to overflow this. Or the process rewrote its cmdline settings such
that argv[0] was that long. Certainly possible, but extremely unlikely.
Fix the scanf string to properly limit to 1023 bytes (+1 for the NUL).
