string.h: Introduce memset_after() for wiping trailing members/padding
A common idiom in kernel code is to wipe the contents of a structure
after a given member. This is especially useful in places where there is
trailing padding. These open-coded cases are usually difficult to read
and very sensitive to struct layout changes. Introduce a new helper,
memset_after() that takes the target struct instance, the byte to write,
and the member name after which the zeroing should start.
Additionally adds memset_startat() for wiping trailing members _starting_
at a specific member instead of after a member, which is more readable
in certain circumstances, but doesn't include any preceding padding.
