Added support for new PolarSSL 1.1 RNG
This patch, while retaining PolarSSL 1.0 support, introduces the PolarSSL 1.1 DRBG.
This RNG adds a number of features, including support for personalisation strings
and multiple entropy sources.
Personalisation strings have been implemented, based on PID, program name, place
within memory, and a hash of the user's certificate.
The entropy sources used are the platform default ones. Which ones these are
depends on how PolarSSL was built, but usually this includes:
- /dev/urandom or the Windows CryptoAPI RNG
- the HAVEGE RNG
- the output of PolarSSL's hardclock() call (usually RDTSC)
Finally, this patch moves to only one instance of the RNG per OpenVPN instance,
instead of one per keystate
