sparse: allow '{ 0 }' to be used without warnings 

In standard C, '{ 0 }' can be used as an universal zero-initializer.
However, Sparse complains if this is used on a type where the first
member (possibly nested) is a pointer since Sparse purposely wants
to warn when '0' is used to initialize a pointer type.

Legitimaly, it's desirable to be able to use '{ 0 }' as an idiom
without these warnings [1,2]. To allow this, an option have now
been added to Sparse:
    537e3e2dae univ-init: conditionally accept { 0 } without warnings

So, add this option to the SPARSE_FLAGS variable.

Note: The option have just been added to Sparse. So, to benefit
      now from this patch it's needed to use the latest Sparse
      source from kernel.org. The option will simply be ignored
      by older versions of Sparse.
