x86/boot: Provide memzero_explicit()

The purgatory code now uses the shared lib/crypto/sha256.c sha256
implementation. This needs memzero_explicit(), implement this.

We also have barrier_data() call after the memset, making sure
neither the compiler nor the linker optimizes out this seemingly
unused function.
