diff from djm@ committed at his request:
introduce two new APIs for requesting strong random numbers:
arc4random_buf() - fill an arbitrary memory range with random numbers
arc4random_uniform() - return a uniformly distributed random number
below

these mirror similarly-named functions in the kernel;
lots of discussion deraadt@ mcbride@
