This was broken by golang/go@321c312d8246dec6889f5fe334b6193c320baf0e.

Go 1.8 renamed this function; cf. golang/go@87e48c5.

Necessary because our evil memclr should go away.

Use int where appropriate, fix up documentation, and clarify. Delete the
implementation where it will soon need to change.

In preparation for changing the public API.

At the level of the OutMessage API. In preparation for reworking its
implementation.

For the sake of testing.T.Run.

In preparation for considering a switch away from the evil use of
runtime's internal memclr function.

This should better stress memclr.
