To safely zero memory, introduce `curlx_memzero()`, and map it to `memset_s()` (C11) or `memset_explicit()` (C23) if auto-detected, or `explicit_bzero()` or `explicit_memset()` for platforms opted-in, or fall back to a local workaround if all unavailable. On Windows, always use `SecureZeroMemory()`, or `SecureZeroMemory2()` with Visual Studio and Windows SDK 10.0.26100.0+. Details above are experimental and may change if they cause issues. Also add macros/functions that zero memory before freeing a buffer: - `curlx_safefreezero()`: for buffers with size. - `curlx_safefreezeroz()`: for null-terminated buffers. - `curlx_freezero()`: for buffers with size. - `curlx_freezeroz()`: for null-terminated buffers. `curlx_memzero()` must not be passed a NULL pointer because in some implementations it is undefined behavior. Also: - curl_sha512_256: Replace hard-wired `explicit_memset()` call with new `curlx_memzero()`.
