RH-MergeRequest: 382: Solve -ftrivial-auto-var-init performance regression with QEMU_UNINITIALIZED
RH-Jira: RHEL-99888

RH-Commit: [29/30] 645ad4d138d1222ea9bd1b2ac3b84d9ff83e2fa2 (stefanha/centos-stream-qemu-kvm)
The 'net_socket_send' method has a 68k byte array used for copying
data between guest and host. Skip the automatic zero-init of this
array to eliminate the performance overhead in the I/O hot path.
The 'buf1' array will be fully initialized when reading data off
the network socket.
