Silence Valgrind complaint with EXEC_BACKEND

The padding bytes written to the backend params file were
uninitialized. That's harmless because we don't access the padding
bytes when we read the file back in, but Valgrind doesn't know
that. In any case, clear the padding bytes to make Valgrind happy.
