protect stack canary from leak via read-as-string by zeroing second byte
This reduces entropy of the canary from 64-bit to 56-bit in exchange for mitigating non-terminated C string overflows by setting the second byte of the canary to nul, so that off-by-one write overflow with a nul byte can still be detected. Idea from GrapheneOS bionic commit 7024d880b51f03a796ff8832f1298f2f1531fd7b
