Zero padding in replication origin's checkpointed on disk-state.

This seems to be largely cosmetic, avoiding valgrind bleats and the
like. The uninitialized padding influences the CRC of the on-disk
entry, but because it's also used when verifying the CRC, that doesn't
cause spurious failures.  Backpatch nonetheless.

It's a bit unfortunate that contrib/test_decoding/sql/replorigin.sql
doesn't exercise the checkpoint path, but checkpoints are fairly
expensive on weaker machines, and we'd have to stop/start for that to
be meaningful.
