/**
 * Overall design of the RNG and entropy sources.
 *
 * We maintain a single global 256-bit RNG state for all high-quality randomness.
 * The following (classes of) functions interact with that state by mixing in new
 * entropy, and optionally extracting random output from it:
 *
 * - GetRandBytes, GetRandHash, GetRandDur, as well as construction of FastRandomContext
 *   objects, perform 'fast' seeding, consisting of mixing in:
 *   - A stack pointer (indirectly committing to calling thread and call stack)
 *   - A high-precision timestamp (rdtsc when available, c++ high_resolution_clock otherwise)
 *   - 64 bits from the hardware RNG (rdrand) when available.
 *   These entropy sources are very fast, and only designed to protect against situations
 *   where a VM state restore/copy results in multiple systems with the same randomness.
 *   FastRandomContext on the other hand does not protect against this once created, but
 *   is even faster (and acceptable to use inside tight loops).
 *
 * - The GetStrongRandBytes() function performs 'slow' seeding, including everything
 *   that fast seeding includes, but additionally:
 *   - OS entropy (/dev/urandom, getrandom(), ...). The application will terminate if
 *     this entropy source fails.
 *   - Another high-precision timestamp (indirectly committing to a benchmark of all the
 *     previous sources).
 *   These entropy sources are slower, but designed to make sure the RNG state contains
 *   fresh data that is unpredictable to attackers.
 *
 * - RandAddPeriodic() seeds everything that fast seeding includes, but additionally:
 *   - A high-precision timestamp
 *   - Dynamic environment data (performance monitoring, ...)
 *   - Strengthen the entropy for 10 ms using repeated SHA512.
 *   This is run once every minute.
 *
 * - On first use of the RNG (regardless of what function is called first), all entropy
 *   sources used in the 'slow' seeder are included, but also:
 *   - 256 bits from the hardware RNG (rdseed or rdrand) when available.
 *   - Dynamic environment data (performance monitoring, ...)
 *   - Static environment data
 *   - Strengthen the entropy for 100 ms using repeated SHA512.
 *
 * When mixing in new entropy, H = SHA512(entropy || old_rng_state) is computed, and
 * (up to) the first 32 bytes of H are produced as output, while the last 32 bytes
 * become the new RNG state.
 *
 * During tests, the RNG can be put into a special deterministic mode, in which the output
 * of all RNG functions, with the exception of GetStrongRandBytes(), is replaced with the
 * output of a deterministic RNG. This deterministic RNG does not gather entropy, and is
 * unaffected by RandAddPeriodic() or RandAddEvent(). It produces pseudorandom data that
 * only depends on the seed it was initialized with, possibly until it is reinitialized.
