[svn-r23499] Merge from trunk
Fixes an issue (HDFFV-8159) where uninitialized memory was being read
during variable-length type conversion. All variable-length type conversion
buffers are now initialized to contain 0s on allocation.
Tested on: jam w/ fortran and c++
This is a very small change (basially changing malloc to calloc) and
is unlikely to cause issues on other platforms.
