[efi] Split out EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL as a separate entropy source
Commit 7ca801d ("[efi] Use the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL as an entropy source
if available") added EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL as an alternative entropy source
via an ad-hoc mechanism specific to efi_entropy.c.
Split out EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL to a separate entropy source, and allow the
entropy core to handle the selection of RDRAND, EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL, or
timer ticks as the active source.
The fault detection logic added in commit a87537d ("[efi] Detect and
disable seriously broken EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL implementations") may be
removed completely, since the failure will already be detected by the
generic ANS X9.82-mandated repetition count test and will now be
handled gracefully by the entropy core.
