dir: do not leak contents of deleted directory entries

Deleting an AFS directory entry (afs_dir_Delete) merely removes the
entry logically by updating the allocation map and hash table.  However,
the entry itself remains on disk - that is, both the cache manager's
cache partition and the fileserver's vice partitions.

This constitutes a leak of directory entry information, including the
object's name and MKfid (vnode and uniqueid).  This leaked information
is also visible on the wire during FetchData requests and volume
operations.

Modify afs_dir_Delete to clear the contents of deleted directory
entries.

Patchset notes:
This commit only prevents leaks for newly deleted entries.  Another
commit in this patchset prevents leaks of partial object names upon
reuse of pre-existing deleted entries.  A third commit in this
patchset prevents yet another kind of directory entry leak, when
internal buffers are reused to create or enlarge existing directories.
All three patches are required to prevent new leaks.  Two additional
salvager patches are also included to assist administrators in the
cleanup of pre-existing leaks.
