1) example (partially humorous random_adaptor, that I call "EXAMPLE")
 * It's not meant to be used in a real system, it's there to show how
   the basics of how to create interfaces for random_adaptors. Perhaps
   it should belong in a manual page

2) Move probe.c's functionality in to random_adaptors.c
 * rename random_ident_hardware() to random_adaptor_choose()

3) Introduce a new way to choose (or select) random_adaptors via tunable
"rngs_want" It's a list of comma separated names of adaptors, ordered
by preferences. I.e.:
rngs_want="yarrow,rdrand"

Such setting would cause yarrow to be preferred to rdrand. If neither of
them are available (or registered), then system will default to
something reasonable (currently yarrow). If yarrow is not present, then
we fall back to the adaptor that's first on the list of registered
adaptors.

4) Introduce a way where RNGs can play a role of entropy source. This is
mostly useful for HW rngs.

The way I envision this is that every HW RNG will use this
functionality by default. Functionality to disable this is also present.
I have an example of how to use this in random_adaptor_example.c (see
modload event, and init function)

5) fix kern.random.adaptors from
kern.random.adaptors: yarrowpanicblock
to
kern.random.adaptors: yarrow,panic,block

6) add kern.random.active_adaptor to indicate currently selected
adaptor:
root@freebsd04:~ # sysctl kern.random.active_adaptor
kern.random.active_adaptor: yarrow

Snapshot of current work;

1) Clean up namespace; only use "Yarrow" where it is Yarrow-specific
or close enough to the Yarrow algorithm. For the rest use a neutral
name.

2) Tidy up headers; put private stuff in private places. More could
be done here.

3) Streamline the hashing/encryption; no need for a 256-bit counter;
128 bits will last for long enough.

There are bits of debug code lying around; these will be removed
at a later stage.
Snapshot; Do some running repairs on entropy harvesting. More needs to follow.
Remove the short-lived namei experiment.

Separate out the Software RNG entropy harvesting queue and thread into its own files.

Remove short-lived idea; thread to harvest (eg) RDRAND enropy into the usual harvest queues. It was a nifty idea, but too heavyweight.

Yarrow wants entropy estimations to be conservative; the usual idea
is that if you are certain you have N bits of entropy, you declare
N/2.

- Use make_dev_credf(MAKEDEV_REF) instead of the race-prone make_dev()+
dev_ref() in the clone handlers that still use it.
- Don't set SI_CHEAPCLONE flag, it's not used anywhere neither in devfs
(for anything real)
