x86/boot: Don't propagate uninitialized boot_params->cc_blob_address



In some cases, bootloaders will leave boot_params->cc_blob_address
uninitialized rather than zeroing it out. This field is only meant to be
set by the boot/compressed kernel in order to pass information to the
uncompressed kernel when SEV-SNP support is enabled.

Therefore, there are no cases where the bootloader-provided values
should be treated as anything other than garbage. Otherwise, the
uncompressed kernel may attempt to access this bogus address, leading to
a crash during early boot.

Normally, sanitize_boot_params() would be used to clear out such fields
but that happens too late: sev_enable() may have already initialized
it to a valid value that should not be zeroed out. Instead, have
sev_enable() zero it out unconditionally beforehand.

Also ensure this happens for !CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT as well by also
including this handling in the sev_enable() stub function.
