Geert Martin Ijewski a37278169d crypto: qcrypto_random_bytes() now works on windows w/o any other crypto libs
If no crypto library is included in the build, QEMU uses
qcrypto_random_bytes() to generate random data. That function tried to open
/dev/urandom or /dev/random and if opening both files failed it errored out.

Those files obviously do not exist on windows, so there the code uses
CryptGenRandom().

Furthermore there was some refactoring and a new function
qcrypto_random_init() was introduced. If a proper crypto library (gnutls or
libgcrypt) is included in the build, this function does nothing. If neither
is included it initializes the (platform specific) handles that are used by
qcrypto_random_bytes().
Either:
* a handle to /dev/urandom | /dev/random on unix like systems
* a handle to a cryptographic service provider on windows
