BUG#47598 - MyISAM may write uninitialized data to disk
When MyISAM writes newly created index page it may be initialized partially. In other words some bytes of sensible data and uninitialized tail of the page may go into index file. Under certain rare circumstances these hunks of memory may contain data that would be otherwise inaccessible to user, like passwords or data from other tables. Fixed by initializing memory for temporary MyISAM key buffer to '\0'. No test case for this fix as it is heavily covered by existing tests.
