hw/block/fdc: floppy command FIFO memory initialization

The uninitialized memory allocated for the command FIFO of the
floppy controller during the VM hardware initialization incurs
many unwanted reports by Valgrind when VM state is being saved.
That verbosity hardens a search for the real memory issues when
the iotests run. Particularly, the patch eliminates 20 unnecessary
reports of the Valgrind tool in the iotest #169.
