  1. [IMPROVED] crypto: effectively zeroize mem. content 

    When libsodim is not used, memory content is zeroized using a simple
memset() and de-allocated using free(), so compiler may decide to remove
memset().

This patch add secure_memzero(), similar to sodium_zero(), to be sure to
zeroize memory content also when libsodium is not used.
