random-util: optionally allow randomness to be generated via RDRAND

Browse Source 
We only use this when we don't require the best randomness. The primary
usecase for this is UUID generation, as this means we don't drain
randomness from the kernel pool for them. Since UUIDs are usually not
secrets RDRAND should be goot enough for them to avoid real-life
collisions.
