cmd/cgo: fix initialization of empty argument types

CL 258938 changed the way C to Go calls work such that they now
construct a C struct on the C side for the arguments and space for the
results. Any pointers in the result space must be zeroed, so we just
zero the whole struct.

However, C makes it surprisingly hard to robustly zero any struct
type. We had used a "{0}" initializer, which works in the vast
majority of cases, but fails if the type is empty or effectively
empty.

This CL fixes this by changing how the cgo tool zero-initializes the
argument struct to be more robust.

Fixes #42495.
