chg: dev: Remove zero initialization of large buffers

Profiles show that an high amount of CPU time spent in memset.
By removing zero initalization of certain large buffers we improve
performance in certain authoritative workloads.

Closes #5159

Merge branch '5159-do-not-zero-qp-search-buffers' into 'main'

See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10058
