POSIX requires that the shm objects are zero-initialized. This has been broken in some earlier commits (starting from 9af5fc5)
Also fix the flat build memory allocation to allocate both object data and payload in the same chunk (as the comment also suggests). This saves allocations and memory in a system with lots of shm objects.
