gcc 8.3.0 was apparently clever enough to optimize away the previously
used os_memset() to explicitly clear a stack buffer that contains keys
when that clearing happened just before returning from the function.
Since memset_s() is not exactly portable (or commonly available yet..),
use a less robust mechanism that is still pretty likely to prevent
current compilers from optimizing the explicit clearing of the memory
away.

Some crypto libraries can return in these functions (e.g., if a specific
hash function is disabled), so we better provide the caller a chance to
check whether the call failed. The return values are not yet used
anywhere, but they will be needed for future changes.
The middle byte of the secret (key for PRF) is shared with key halfs in
case the key length is odd. This does not happen in any of the current
tls_prf() uses, but it's better to fix this function to avoid future issues
should someone end up defining a use that uses an odd length for the key.
