langref: undefined _is_ materialized in all safe modes (#24107)
* trailing whitespace * langref: undefined _is_ materialized in all safe modes I am also not super happy about the clause that immediately follows. I _believe_ what we want to say here is that, simultaneously: * undefined is guaranteed to be matrerialized in in all safe modes. A Zig implementation that elides `ptr.* = undefined` in ReleaseSafe mode would be a non-conforming implementation. * A Zig program that relies on undefined being materialized is buggy. But I don't think it's the time to engage this level of language-lawering!

bugs early, and to help detect use of undefined memory in a debugger. However, this behavior is only an
implementation feature, not a language semantic, so it is not guaranteed to be observable to code.
