Support daemon for hardware random device
This daemon feeds data from a random number generator to the kernel's
random number entropy pool, after first checking the data to
ensure that it is properly random.

- update to 6.17:
* mix data fed to the kernel byte-wise from multiple sources
* added option to attempt more persistent use of slow entropy
sources
* fix some missing m4 quotes
* improved debug output to show FIPS failures more clearly
* added a named pipe entropy source
* adjusted linux poolsize
* fixed some pkcs11 error messages
* fixed ignorefail and random_step options
* improve jitter cpu monopolization on small/single cpu systems
- disable nistbeacon support
* Improved console output readability
* Add forced reseeding of kernel entropy pool
- Enable Power64 architecture. Starting with Power7+ we have in
CPU random number generator
- systemd: Do not start in containers, in that case
an integer. just use the sane builtin default
- udev does not like rules without a new line
- there is no trousers-devel requirement anymore
- Support systemd.

init script
- do not enable by default
- use debian/ubuntu rng-tools_mt which is under active development
