Thanks for looking at it!

> In elsewhere of the patch, you all use “JsonbInState ps = {0}” to do the initialization, only this place uses
memset().Can we keep consistent and use {0} here also. I see there is a “continue” and a “break” before the memset(),
maybeyou want to avoid unnecessary initialization. I guess that is a tiny saving, but if you think that saving is
worthwhile,I’m fine with keeping the current code. 

I intentionally made the 0001 patch as mechanical as possible,
and in particular did not second-guess existing decisions about
whether to initialize a variable in the declaration or later.
So I'm not excited about doing it differently in this one place.
There are some other memsets in the same area that could also
be replaced by "= {0}" if we cared to, but that seems like
material for a separate cleanup patch.

No, because that's not the same :-(.  sizeof() would produce 16,
on most machines anyway, thanks to alignment.  But 12 is the
type's size according to pg_type.

It's the same ugly hack as before, I just formatted the code more
legibly ... I didn't stop to look at whether there's a better way to
do it.  Again, that seems like material for a different patch.
