base: Fix unitialized storage
The bitunion is not being initialized on constructor to avoid performance overhead, and that generated a maybe-unitialized error when a sub-class was being copied before assigned in serialize's parseParam() in some compilers. This patch adds zero-initialization to the problematic variable to appease the compiler. Change-Id: I90fa6aa356b3e14ec25e3294b17ed10f429a9a38 Signed-off-by: Daniel R.
