Subject: c23 memset_explicit()
I recognized neither
https://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl
nor
https://forge.icube.unistra.fr/icps/musl/-/branches
seem to include c23 memset_explicit().
Or it slipped my attention.
So I provide a patch. It compiles but is otherwise untested.
It is trivial enough that you would spot an error when merging.
No guards for c23 as mem is a reserved prefix.
It closely follows explicit_bzero.c. So I assume it fits into the coding
style musl uses.
