    router: Fix memory leak in signed_descriptor_move()
    
    The signed_descriptor_move() was not releasing memory inside the destination
    object before overwriting it with the source object. This commit adds a reset
    function that free that memory inside a signed descriptor object and zero it.
    
    Closes #20715.
