Daniel P. Berrange e95ef67b35 Introduce new API for generating random numbers 
The old virRandom() API was not generating good random numbers.
Replace it with a new API virRandomBits which instead of being
told the upper limit, gets told the number of bits of randomness
required.

* src/util/virrandom.c, src/util/virrandom.h: Add virRandomBits,
  and move virRandomInitialize
* src/util/util.h, src/util/util.c: Delete virRandom and
  virRandomInitialize
* src/libvirt.c, src/security/security_selinux.c,
  src/test/test_driver.c, src/util/iohelper.c: Update for
  changes from virRandom to virRandomBits
* src/storage/storage_backend_iscsi.c: Remove bogus call
  to virRandomInitialize & convert to virRandomBits

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
