Eric Blake 19896423f7 hash: minor touchups
On RHEL5, I got:
util/virrandom.c:66: warning: nested extern declaration of '_gl_verify_function66' [-Wnested-externs]

The fix is to hoist the verify earlier.  Also some other hodge-podge
fixes I noticed while reviewing Dan's recent series.

* .gitignore: Ignore new test.
* src/util/cgroup.c: Bump copyright year.
* src/util/virhash.c: Fix typo in description.
* src/util/virrandom.c (virRandomBits): Mark doc comment, and
hoist assert to silence older gcc.
