I didn't have much success with CC_AUTO_VAR_INIT_ZERO_ENABLER, but maybe
a better way is to check if the version of libclang used by bindgen is
less than 17, considering that is extra clang option is supposed to be
dropped in clang-17:

I'll send a v2, unless we find a better way to support this auto var
zero-init feature.
