The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a code reorganization: it splits the random-number generator (RNG) module into two parts. The basic hardware RNG moves from the security subsystem to the system subsystem, while the stronger multi-source RNG stays in the security subsystem under a new name. All call sites are updated to include the correct new header. The actual logic of how random numbers are generated does not change.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as routine refactoring. If reviewing for security, verify that no call site accidentally switched from `rng_fill_buffer_strong` to `rng_fill_buffer` when updating includes; the diff shows no such regression.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
