Subject: add explicit_bzero implementation
X-Git-Tag: v1.1.20~55

add explicit_bzero implementation

maintainer's note: past sentiment was that, despite being imperfect
and unable to force clearing of all possible copies of sensitive data
(e.g. in registers, register spills, signal contexts left on the
stack, etc.) this function would be added if major implementations
agreed on it, which has happened -- several BSDs and glibc all include
it.
