Subject: [PATCH 1/3] hw_random: Move UML_RANDOM at the last position

UML_RANDOM is the only hardware random number generator option which
does not depend on HW_RANDOM. Having it in the middle of the other
options breaks the alignment in "make menuconfig". Move it at the last
position to avoid that.
