<summary>Changes</summary>
Avoid checking padding bytes in `struct addrinfo` in the `getaddrinfo` interceptor.
The interceptor used a single `COMMON_INTERCEPTOR_READ_RANGE` for the
whole structure, which caused MSan to report uninitialized padding even when all
named members were initialized.
Check each member separately instead.
Testing
- Added `getaddrinfo-padding.cpp` to cover the padding case
- Verified the new test fails before the fix and passes after the change
- Verified `getaddrinfo-positive.cpp` still reports uninitialized fields
- Ran `ninja -C build/runtimes/runtimes-bins check-msan` on AArch64 Linux
