random: pull add_hwgenerator_randomness() declaration into random.h
add_hwgenerator_randomness() is a function implemented and documented inside of random.c. It is the way that hardware RNGs push data into it. Therefore, it should be declared in random.h. Otherwise sparse complains with: random.c:1137:6: warning: symbol 'add_hwgenerator_randomness' was not declared. Should it be static? The alternative would be to include hw_random.h into random.c, but that wouldn't really be good for anything except slowing down compile time.
