[RFC PATCH] advapi32: Use Windows APIs to read /dev/urandom.

[Hans Leidekker]

This will cause a performance regression. SystemFunction036 (RtlGenRandom)
is already an order of magnitude slower than native because it opens and closes
/dev/urandom on every call. Going through wineserver makes it 2 orders of
magnitude slower:

int buf[4], i;
for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++) RtlGenRandom(buf, sizeof(buf));

Windows:                      16 ticks
Wine/open():                 209 ticks
Wine/NtCreateFile():        3612 ticks
Wine/NtCreateFile()/cached:   96 ticks

We could cache the file handle to mitigate that, but then there's the risk that
an application accidentally closes the handle.

Ideally we'd implement this with getrandom() on Linux. We probably don't want
to split advapi32 just for this, so maybe a private ntdll export is justified
here?
