SUMMARY: MemorySanitizer: use-of-uninitialized-value
llvm-project/libc/src/__support/CPP/string_view.h:41:11 in length

What's going on here is that mempcpy_test.cpp's Simple test is using
ASSERT_STREQ with a partially initialized char array. ASSERT_STREQ calls
Test::testStrEq which constructs a cpp:string_view. That constructor
calls the
private method cpp::string_view::length. When built with msan, the loop
is
transformed into multi-byte access, which then fails upon access.

I took a look at libc++'s __constexpr_strlen which just calls
__builtin_strlen(). Replacing the implementation of
cpp::string_view::length
with a call to __builtin_strlen() may still result in out of bounds
access when
the test is built with msan.

It's not safe to use ASSERT_STREQ with a partially initialized array.
Initialize the whole array so that the test passes.
