Sebastian Lackner f3c777d5ea main: Add '-devrandom' commandline option
Allows to use /dev/random for generating the master key instead of the
default Go implementation. When the kernel random generator has been
properly initialized both are considered equally secure, however:

* Versions of Go prior to 1.9 just fall back to /dev/urandom if the
  getrandom() syscall would be blocking (Go Bug #19274)

* Kernel versions prior to 3.17 do not support getrandom(), and there
  is no check if the random generator has been properly initialized
  before reading from /dev/urandom

This is especially useful for embedded hardware with low-entroy. Please
note that generation of the master key might block indefinitely if the
kernel cannot harvest enough entropy.
