    test: Fix explicit_bzero() test on the Hurd
    
    On the Hurd a small read(3) might end up (indirectly) copying the data
    on the stack, which we will end up finding even when we have cleared
    the buffer.
    
    To avoid these side effects, we add a new function, that we force not
    to be inlined, so that we can reuse the same stack space, that will
    blank any possible stack side effects. This should be portable
    regardless of stack growing up or down.
