Call setbuf when reading or writing files: programs

After opening a file containing sensitive data, call mbedtls_setbuf() to
disable buffering. This way, we don't expose sensitive data to a memory
disclosure vulnerability in a buffer outside our control.

This commit adds a call to mbedtls_setbuf() after each call to fopen(),
but only in sample programs that were calling mbedtls_platform_zeroize().
Don't bother protecting stdio buffers in programs where application buffers
weren't protected.
