ip: zero sockaddr returned on error queue
The sockaddr is returned in IP(V6)_RECVERR as part of errhdr. That
structure is defined and allocated on the stack as
struct {
struct sock_extended_err ee;
struct sockaddr_in(6) offender;
} errhdr;
The second part is only initialized for certain SO_EE_ORIGIN values.
Always initialize it completely.
An MTU exceeded error on a SOCK_RAW/IPPROTO_RAW is one example that
would return uninitialized bytes.

Also verified that there is no padding between errhdr.ee and
errhdr.offender that could leak additional kernel data.
