Use zeroed allocations in the mir interpreter instead eagerly touching the memory

#86255 introduced a 30% regression in [page faults](https://perf.rust-lang.org/compare.html?start=64ae15ddd3f3cca7036ab2b2f3a6b130b62af4da&end=39e20f1ae5f13451eb35247808d6a2527cb7d060&stat=faults
) and a 3% regression in [max-rss](https://perf.rust-lang.org/index.html?start=2021-07-01&end=&absolute=false&stat=max-rss) in the ctfe-stress benchmarks.
That's most likely happened because it separated allocation from initialization of the vec which defeats the zero-optimization.

Currently there's no allocation API that is fallible, zeroing and returns a slice, so this PR introduces one and then uses that to solve the problem. In principle `vec.resize(len, 0)` could be optimized to use `alloc::grow_zeroed` where appropriate but that would require new specializations and new plumbing in `RawVec`.
