Leah Rowe a3e3cdc057 util/nvmutil: rand: use getrandom on newer linux ...

we still fall back to the old /dev/urandom read
on older linux, via runtime detection (ENOSYS).

getrandom is better, because it guarantees entropy
via blocking, and works even when /dev/urandom
is unavailable.

it has the same practical benefit as arc4random,
which i use on bsd. linux can have arc4random,
but not every linux libc has it, so it's better
to use getrandom on linux.

older linux will fall back to /dev/urandom
