It's not clear what exactly is meant by padding in that particular statement.
It may as well be everything beyong the first member.  However C99 does not
require zeroing out the padding anyway.

I can hardly believe there's a platform where the second union member may
in fact be non-zero in this case.  The entire union is allocated in the BSS
segment and is not even present in the binary file.

The reasons why C standard has this grey area are clear.  Zeroing out a chunk
of memory may not be equivalent to initializing particular members to NULL, 0.0
etc on certain platforms.  However nginx already heavily relies on ngx_memzero()
for initializing most structures.  For platforms where this works, there are
no reasons why a static union would not be allocated in a BSS segment.

However it's not hard to avoid the issue completely, just to be on the safe
side.  Thanks for noticing this.

Avoiding mixed socket families in PROXY protocol v1 (ticket #2010).

When using realip module, remote and local addresses of a connection can belong
to different address families.  This previously resulted in generating PROXY
protocol headers like this:

  PROXY TCP4 127.0.0.1 unix:/tmp/nginx1.sock 55544 0

The PROXY protocol v1 specification does not allow mixed families.  The change
substitutes server address with zero address in this case:

  PROXY TCP4 127.0.0.1 0.0.0.0 55544 0

As an alternative, "PROXY UNKNOWN" header could be used, which unlike this
header does not contain any useful information about the client.

Also, the above mentioned format for unix socket address is not specified in
PROXY protocol v1 and is a by-product of internal nginx representation of it.
The change eliminates such addresses from PROXY protocol headers as well.
