As noticed by Brian, KMSAN should not be zeroing the origin when
unpoisoning parts of a four-byte uninitialized value, e.g.:

    char a[4];
    kmsan_unpoison_memory(a, 1);

This led to false negatives, as certain poisoned values could receive zero
origins, preventing those values from being reported.

To fix the problem, check that kmsan_internal_set_shadow_origin() writes
zero origins only to slots which have zero shadow.
