Michael Brown 2c197517f2 [libc] Always use a non-zero seed for the (non-crypto) RNG
The non-cryptographic RNG implemented by random() has the property
that a seed value of zero will result in a generated sequence of
all-zero values.  This situation can arise if currticks() returns zero
at start of day.

Work around this problem by falling back to a fixed non-zero seed if
necessary.

This has no effect on the separate DRBG used by cryptographic code.
