Stephen Hemminger 697f8d0348 random32: seeding improvement
The rationale is:
   * use u32 consistently
   * no need to do LCG on values from (better) get_random_bytes
   * use more data from get_random_bytes for secondary seeding
   * don't reduce state space on srandom32()
   * enforce state variable initialization restrictions

Note: the second paper has a version of random32() with even longer period
and a version of random64() if needed.

This is a maximally equidistributed combined Tausworthe generator
based on code from GNU Scientific Library 1.5 (30 Jun 2004)
x_n = (s1_n ^ s2_n ^ s3_n)
s1_{n+1} = (((s1_n & 4294967294) <<12) ^ (((s1_n <<13) ^ s1_n) >>19))
s2_{n+1} = (((s2_n & 4294967288) << 4) ^ (((s2_n << 2) ^ s2_n) >>25))
s3_{n+1} = (((s3_n & 4294967280) <<17) ^ (((s3_n << 3) ^ s3_n) >>11))
The period of this generator is about 2^88.

There is an erratum in the paper "Tables of Maximally
Equidistributed Combined LFSR Generators", Mathematics of
Computation, 68, 225 (1999), 261--269:
http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~lecuyer/myftp/papers/tausme2.ps
... the k_j most significant bits of z_j must be non-
zero, for each j. (Note: this restriction also applies to the
computer code given in [4], but was mistakenly not mentioned in
that paper.)
This affects the seeding procedure by imposing the requirement
s1 > 1, s2 > 7, s3 > 15.
