* src/util/network.c (virSocketAddrMask): Zero out port, so that

I'm not sure if this is the best patch; an alternative would be
to call memset(network,0,sizeof network) in iptablesFormatNetwork
prior to virSocketAddrMaskByPrefix.
(Sigh. I had visited this exact piece of the code due to an error during
getnameinfo, and thought that setting network->len was the only thing
missing.)
I think this is the right place to fix it; A caller to
virSocketAddrMaskByPrefix (or virSocketAddrMask) shouldn't need to
initialize the virSocketAddr (I think it really should be an opaque type
outside of network.c, although it isn't always treated that way, even by
me).
ACK.
But with this patch in place,
valgrind no longer complained about:

So I'm assuming that the uninitialized read was due to gethostname
looking at the port field which was still filled with uninitialized
stack data.
