Move the zeroing of results earlier. In particular, they need to
come before any move-to-heap operations, as those require allocation.
Those allocations are points at which the GC can see the uninitialized
result slots.
For the function:
func f() (x, y, z *int) {
defer(){}()
escape(&y)
return
}
We used to generate code like this:
x = nil
y = nil
&y = new(int)
z = nil
Now we will generate:
x = nil
y = nil
z = nil
&y = new(int)
Since the fix for #18860, the return slots are always live if there
is a defer, so the former ordering allowed the GC to see junk
in the z slot.
Fixes#19078
