- Remove all games with errno to further reduce code size.
- Combine error messages that don't benefit from being separated.
- Lock directory fd instead of separate file.

- Remove global variables and pass dfd by value, opened once instead of
twice, which shaves off some more bytes.

- Hoist bb_strtoul out of min/max to prevent quadruple evaluation.
- Don't use separate variables for boottime/realtime.
- Make use of ENABLE_FEATURE_CLEAN_UP where appropriate.
- Order hash initialization after lock taking per Bernhard's taste.
- Add comment description of theory of operation.

- Make extensive use of libbb.h functions, which simplify a lot of code
and reduce binary size considerably.

The RNG can't actually be seeded from a shell script, due to the
reliance on ioctls and the fact that entropy written into the
unprivileged /dev/urandom device is not immediately mixed in, making
subsequent seed reads dangerous. For this reason, the seedrng project
provides a basic "C script" meant to be copy and pasted into projects
like Busybox and tweaked as needed: <https://git.zx2c4.com/seedrng/about/>.
The SeedRNG construction has been part of systemd's seeder since
January, and recently was added to Android, OpenRC, and Void's Runit,
with more integrations on their way depending on context. Virtually
every single Busybox-based distro I have seen seeds things in wrong,
incomplete, or otherwise dangerous way. For example, fixing this issue
in Buildroot requires first for Busybox to have this fix.
This commit imports it into Busybox and wires up the basic config. The
utility itself is tiny, and unlike the example code from the SeedRNG
project, we can re-use libbb's existing hash functions, rather than
having to ship a standalone BLAKE2s, which makes this even smaller.
