Michael Brown 4fb60435c9 [rng] Add get_random_nz() function required by RSA algorithm
RSA requires the generation of random non-zero bytes (i.e. a sequence
of random numbers in the range [0x01,0xff]).  ANS X9.82 provides
various Approved methods for converting random bits into random
numbers.  The simplest such method is the Simple Discard Method.
