Before this commit, the save-entropy script rotates entropy files like logs. This involves creating a new file that holds the entropy and renaming of all existing entropy files. However, the entropy data do not really need to be kept in a particular order, and replacing the oldest file is sufficient. This commit replaces the rotation with a scan in the [1..entropy_save_num] space that finds the first empty slot, or the slot of the oldest file, and writes entropy into that slot. This also fixes an issue that prevents save-entropy from saving any entropy when there is one non-regular file in any slot as a side effect. Based on an earlier patch from peterj@.
