* random.c (read_seed_file): New.
(set_random_seed_file): New.
(read_pool): Try to read the seeding file.
(update_random_seed_file): New.
(read_pool): Do an initial extra seeding when level 2 quality random
is requested the first time. This requestes at least POOLSIZE/2 bytes
of entropy. Compined with the seeding file this should make normal
random bytes cheaper and increase the quality of the random bytes
used for key generation.
* rndegd.c (gather_random): Shortcut level 0.
* rndunix.c (gather_random): Ditto.
* rndw32.c (gather_random): Ditto.
