Kernel: Add g_cpu_supports_rdseed

Browse source 
CPUs which support RDRAND do not necessarily support RDSEED. This
introduces a flag g_cpu_supports_rdseed which is set appropriately
by CPUID. This causes Haswell CPUs in particular (and probably a lot
of AMD chips) to now fail to boot with #2634, rather than an illegal
instruction.

It seems like the KernelRng needs either an initial reseed call or
more random events added before the first call to get_good_random,
but I don't feel qualified to make that kind of change.
