    random: Fix hang of _gcry_rndjent_get_version.
    
    * random/rndjent.c (_gcry_rndjent_get_version): Move locking.
    
    --
    
    While the protection for jent_rng_collector is needed,
    _gcry_rndjent_poll is also acquiring the lock for the variable.
    Thus, it hangs.
    
    This change is sub-optimal, the lock is once released after the call
    of _gcry_rndjent_poll.  It might be good to modify the API of
    _gcry_rndjent_poll to explicitly allow this use case of forcing
    initialization keeping the lock.
