Description of Changes
Clean up the PatchCommand struct.
Rationale behind Changes
The trick it was previously using where you memset/memcmp the whole struct isn't valid, since the compiler is allowed to overwrite padding when combining writes. In practice clang seems to be conservative about this, but we shouldn't be relying on it.
