This is a weird thing to do in that there's no way to make it auto now.

Sure, -M x-linuxboot-randomness=auto works. And making it already on/off/auto will limit future patches to the injection logic rather than the QOM boilerplate.

And in that case, let's just make it a simple boolean property for now?
