security(5): Check kern.entropy.needed for confident entropy.
Don't test whether a non-blocking read from /dev/random would return data. For the sake of availability, /dev/random will unblock based on sources like timer interrupts, which we can't confidently assert anything about the actual unpredictability of. Here, the goal is to highlight systems that have neither obtained entropy from an HWRNG with a confident entropy assessment, nor been seeded from a source the operator knows about. XXX pullup-10
