getrandom: Add support for native Windows

User-agent: KMail/5.1.3 (Linux/4.4.0-177-generic; KDE/5.18.0; x86_64; ; )

Native Windows is the only platform without the /dev/random and
/dev/urandom devices; it therefore needs special code.

Thanks for the pointer.

This patch implements it: try BCryptGenRandom first, and fall back on
CryptGenRandom.


2020-05-31  Bruno Haible  <bruno@clisp.org>

        getrandom: Add support for native Windows.
        * lib/getrandom.c: Include <errno.h>, <windows.h>, <bcrypt.h>,
        <wincrypt.h>.
        (CRYPT_VERIFY_CONTEXT): New macro.
        (LoadLibrary, CryptAcquireContext): Redirect to the variant with suffix
        'A'.
        (GetProcAddress): New macro.
        (BCryptGenRandomFuncType): New type.
        (BCryptGenRandomFunc, initialized): New variables.
        (initialize): New function.
        (getrandom): On native Windows, use <bcrypt.h> API when available, and
        <wincrypt.h> API as fallback.
        * m4/getrandom.m4 (gl_FUNC_GETRANDOM): Set LIB_GETRANDOM.
        * modules/getrandom (Link): New section.
        * modules/getentropy (Link): Likewise.
        * modules/getrandom-tests (Makefile.am): Link test-getrandom against
        $(LIB_GETRANDOM).
        * modules/getentropy-tests (Makefile.am): Link test-getentropy against
        $(LIB_GETRANDOM).
        * modules/sys_random-c++-tests (Makefile.am): Link test-sys_random-c++
        against $(LIB_GETRANDOM).
        * doc/glibc-functions/getrandom.texi: Mention the native Windows
        support.
