This patch adds cpu_physical_memory_zero() function. This is equivalent to
calling cpu_physical_memory_write() with a buffer full of zeroes, but
avoids actually allocating such a buffer along the way.

I'd think a memset() like interface would be better but...
We should definitely implement this function in terms of
cpu_physical_memory_write instead of open coding the logic again.
