seedrng: import SeedRNG utility for kernel RNG seed files
The RNG can't actually be seeded from a shell script, due to the
reliance on ioctls and the fact that entropy written into the
unprivileged /dev/urandom device is not immediately mixed in, making
subsequent seed reads dangerous. For this reason, the seedrng project
provides a basic "C script" meant to be copy and pasted into projects
like Busybox and tweaked as needed: <https://git.zx2c4.com/seedrng/about/>.
The SeedRNG construction has been part of systemd's seeder since
January, and recently was added to Android, OpenRC, and Void's Runit,
with more integrations on their way depending on context. Virtually
every single Busybox-based distro I have seen seeds things in wrong,
incomplete, or otherwise dangerous way. For example, fixing this issue
in Buildroot requires first for Busybox to have this fix.
This commit imports it into Busybox and wires up the basic config. The
utility itself is tiny, and unlike the example code from the SeedRNG
project, we can re-use libbb's existing hash functions, rather than
having to ship a standalone BLAKE2s, which makes this even smaller.
