The structure crypto_info contains fields that are not initialized and
only .version is set.  The copy_to_user call is hence leaking information
from the stack to userspace which must be avoided. Fix this by zero'ing
all the unused fields.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1467421 ("Uninitialized scalar variable")

Fixes: a08943947873 ("crypto: chtls - Register chtls with net tls")
