A common idiom in kernel code is to wipe the contents of a structure
starting from a given member. These open-coded cases are usually difficult
to read and very sensitive to struct layout changes. Like memset_after(),
introduce a new helper, memset_startat() that takes the target struct
instance, the byte to write, and the member name where zeroing should
start.
Note that this doesn't zero padding preceding the target member. For
those cases, memset_after() should be used on the preceding member.

Before changing anything about memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), add
run-time tests to check basic behaviors for any regressions.
