This may result in the entire union not being initialized. For example:

  union U {
    uint32_t x;
    uint64_t y;
  };
  
  void func() {
    U u = {};
    ...
  }

Some might assume that `U u = {}` zero-initializes the whole union whereas only 
the bits that compose `U.x` are zero-inited.

Oddly enough (mostly from what I've seen personally), this seems to only matter 
in the case we use `-ftrivial-auto-var-init=pattern` where llvm `undef`s are 
replaced with non-zero values. In any normal case, it seems that these `undef`s 
just get lowered to zeros.
