[LTP] [PATCH] Fix getcwd03 testcase by zeroing target buffer for readlink()

[Helge Deller]

According to the man(2) page of readlink(), a null byte is not appended to the
target buffer. So applications need to make sure that the target buffer is
zero-initialized, otherwise random bytes at the end of the returned string may
exist. 

This patch zero-initializes the on-stack char array "link" and thus fixes the
testcase failure of getcwd03 on the hppa/parisc architecture (and maybe others).
