commit 78297c9bd458a14bd43b58c4fa6678d154321e03

    libc/stdlib: Add freezero() function.
    
    It is useful function for security related features. Internally uses
    explicit_bzero(3) before freeing the pointers. It could be implemented
    in nmalloc.c for extra benefits.
    Update the manpage.
    
    Taken-from: OpenBSD
