Subject: [PATCH 4/4 v3] random: add rng-seed= command line option

A followup to commit 428826f5358c922dc378830a1717b682c0823160
("fdt: add support for rng-seed") to extend what was started
with Open Firmware (OF or Device Tree) parsing, but also add
it to the command line.

If CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_BOOTLOADER is set, then feed the rng-seed
command line option length as added trusted entropy.

Always erase view of the rng-seed option, except our early command
line parsing, to prevent leakage to applications or modules, to
eliminate any attack vector.

It is preferred to add rng-seed to the Device Tree, but some
platforms do not have this option, so this adds the ability to
provide some command-line-limited data to the entropy through this
alternate mechanism.  Expect on average 6 bits of useful entropy
per character.

v3
- Add Documentation (all other new v2 patches unchanged)

v2
- Split into four bite sized patches.
- Correct spelling in commit message.
- rng-seed is assumed to be utf-8, so correct both to 6 bits/character
  of collected entropy.
- Move entropy collection to a static __always_inline helper function.
