enter_chroot: tweak awk to match POSIX substr requirements

Browse Source 
POSIX says that the first arg to substr() counts from 1 which means
that awk implementations interpret a value of 0 in their own special
way.  With gawk, it does the logical thing (imo), but with mawk, it
does it by one less.

Example:
echo abc | mawk '{print substr($0, 0, 2)}'  -> a
echo abc | gawk '{print substr($0, 0, 2)}'  -> ab
echo abc | mawk '{print substr($0, 1, 2)}'  -> ab
echo abc | gawk '{print substr($0, 1, 2)}'  -> ab

So stick to the POSIX spec and count from 1.

While we're here, using "len" rather than "l" to improve readability.
