New string function explicit_bzero (from OpenBSD).
explicit_bzero(s, n) is the same as memset(s, 0, n), except that the
compiler is not allowed to delete a call to explicit_bzero even if the
memory pointed to by 's' is dead after the call.  Right now, this effect
is achieved externally by having explicit_bzero be a function whose
semantics are unknown to the compiler, and internally, with a no-op
asm statement that clobbers memory.  This does mean that small
explicit_bzero operations cannot be expanded inline as small memset
operations can, but on the other hand, small memset operations do get
deleted by the compiler.  Hopefully full compiler support for
explicit_bzero will happen relatively soon.

There are two new tests: test-explicit_bzero.c verifies the
visible semantics in the same way as the existing test-bzero.c,
and tst-xbzero-opt.c verifies the not-being-optimized-out property.
The latter is conceptually based on a test written by Matthew Dempsky
for the OpenBSD regression suite.

The crypt() implementation has an immediate use for this new feature.
We avoid having to add a GLIBC_PRIVATE alias for explicit_bzero
by running all of libcrypt's calls through the fortified variant,
__explicit_bzero_chk, which is in the impl namespace anyway.  Currently
I'm not aware of anything in libc proper that needs this, but the
glue is all in place if it does become necessary.  The legacy DES
implementation wasn't bothering to clear its buffers, so I added that,
mostly for consistency's sake.

+/* This test is conceptually based on a test designed by Matthew
+   Dempsky for the OpenBSD regression suite:
+   <openbsd>/src/regress/lib/libc/explicit_bzero/explicit_bzero.c.
+   The basic idea is, we have a function that contains a
+   block-clearing operation (not necessarily explicit_bzero), after
+   which the block is dead, in the compiler-jargon sense.  Execute
+   that function while running on a user-allocated alternative
+   stack. Then we have another pointer to the memory region affected
+   by the block clear -- namely, the original allocation for the
+   alternative stack -- and can find out whether it actually happened.
+
+   The OpenBSD test uses sigaltstack and SIGUSR1 to get onto an
+   alternative stack.  This causes a number of awkward problems; some
+   operating systems (e.g. Solaris and OSX) wipe the signal stack upon
+   returning to the normal stack, there's no way to be sure that other
+   processes running on the same system will not interfere, and the
+   signal stack is very small so it's not safe to call printf there.
+   This implementation instead uses the <ucontext.h> coroutine
+   interface.  The coroutine stack is still too small to safely use
+   printf, but we know the OS won't erase it, so we can do all the
+   checks and printing from the normal stack.  */
