  1. Add Entropy Source and DRNG Manager (ESDM) RNG support 

    ESDM is a Linux-based user-space PRNG daemon, with configurable entropy
sources.

See: https://github.com/smuellerDD/esdm

It currently gets used, when a high level of control over entropy
sources is desirable, e.g. for VPN appliance solutions.

In order to use this source, the ESDM server daemon has to be running
and botan must be configured --with-esdm.

ESDM currently works only on Linux.
