4a175969bb Fix counter increment in Salsa and ChaCha.
In my eagerness to eliminate a branch which is taken once per 2^38
bytes of keystream, I forgot that the state words are in host order.
Thus, the counter increment code worked fine on little-endian
machines, but not on big-endian ones.  Switch to a simpler (branchful)
solution.

bd86cc8ebf Replace the RC4 algorithm for generating in-kernel secure random
numbers with Chacha20. Keep the API, though, as that is what the
other *BSD's have done.

Use the boot-time entropy stash (if present) to bootstrap the
in-kernel entropy source.
