In an earlier conversation with Neil, I had an idea that I'd like
your opinion on.

I still think whether true-random mode is wanted is up in the air,
but if it is, a better way to proide it would be to create a separate
crypto_alg for it, with a smaller seed size (no DT seed) and its own name.

But I have no idea what name to use.  Any suggestions?  And a FIPS
version, too?
