Subject: [PATCH v2 nolibc 27/53] tools/nolibc: ensure stack protector guard is never zero

From: Thomas Weißschuh <linux@weissschuh.net>

The all-zero pattern is one of the more probable out-of-bound writes so
add a special case to not accidentally accept it.

Also it enables the reliable detection of stack protector initialization
during testing.
