Michal Rybecky 0ffefb8a4d hmac: erase key-derived stack buffers before returning
hmac_sha256() leaves four stack buffers containing key-derived material
(inner_padding, outer_padding, replacement_key, hash state) on the stack
after returning. The inner_padding and outer_padding arrays contain
key XOR 0x36 and key XOR 0x5c respectively, which are trivially
reversible to recover the original HMAC key.

This function is called with security-sensitive keys including the LUKS
volume key (cryptsetup-util.c), TPM2 PIN (tpm2-util.c), and boot secret
(tpm2-swtpm.c). The key material persists on the stack until overwritten
by later unrelated function calls.

Add CLEANUP_ERASE() to all four local buffers, following the same
pattern applied to tpm2-util.c in commit 6c80ce6 (PR #41394).
