Nick Mathewson 714aeedc52 20865: Don't use getentropy() on OSX Sierra.
Tor 0.2.9 has a broader range of fixes and workarounds here, but for
0.2.8, we're just going to maintain the existing behavior.

(The alternative would be to backport both
1eba088054 and
16fcbd21c9 , but the latter is kind of
a subtle kludge in the configure.ac script, and I'm not a fan of
backporting that kind of thing.)

o Minor bugfixes (portability):
- Avoid compilation errors when building on OSX Sierra. Sierra began
to support the getentropy() API, but created a few problems in
doing so. Tor 0.2.9 has a more thorough set of workarounds; in
0.2.8, we are just using the /dev/urandom interface. Fixes
bug 20865. Bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
