rng-tools: use 'hw-rng' to disable libjitterentropy
The warrior version of rng-tools introduced an optional PACKAGECONFIG, which was enabled by default, called `libjitterentropy`. For BMC chips which have a hardware RNG, this is not a necessary feature, and causes a noticeable delay in the start of the rngd. On systems with very low IO activity we are seeing cases of what appears to be hangs. Define a machine feature which can be used to disable the PACKAGECONFIG for machines which contain a BMC chip with a hardware RNG. Aspeed has one which is supported; Nuvoton currently does not.
