[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH] object: Initialize allocated memory to zero.

[Tanu Kaskinen]

If object subclasses have errors with uninitialized
variables, those are easier to detect and debug when the
memory is always zero. It also makes it possible to
intentionally omit manual variable initialization to zero,
which may be sometimes desirable.
