Clear padding of PgStat_HashKey when handling pgstats entries

PgStat_HashKey is currently initialized in a way that could result in
random data if the structure has any padding bytes.  The structure
has no padding bytes currently, fortunately, but it could become a
problem should the structure change at some point in the future.

The code is changed to use some memset(0) so as any padding would be
handled properly, as it would be surprising to see random failures in
the pgstats entry lookups.  PgStat_HashKey is a structure internal to
pgstats, and an ABI change could be possible in the scope of a bug fix,
so backpatch down to 15 where this has been introduced.
