Use RdSeed when available, and reduce RdRand load

This introduces support for autodetecting and using the RdSeed instruction.

In addition:
* In SeedFast, only 64 bits of entropy are generated through RdRand (256 was relatively slow).
* In SeedStartup, 256 bits of entropy are generated, using RdSeed (preferably) or RdRand (otherwise).
