Introducing CMake is an important step in a larger effort to make
Zephyr easy to use for application developers working on different
platforms with different development environment needs.
Simplified, this change retains Kconfig as-is, and replaces all
Makefiles with CMakeLists.txt. The DSL-like Make language that KBuild
offers is replaced by a set of CMake extentions. These extentions have
either provided simple one-to-one translations of KBuild features or
introduced new concepts that replace KBuild concepts.
This is a breaking change for existing test infrastructure and build
scripts that are maintained out-of-tree. But for FW itself, no porting
should be necessary.
For users that just want to continue their work with minimal
disruption the following should suffice:
Install CMake 3.8.2+
Port any out-of-tree Makefiles to CMake.
Learn the absolute minimum about the new command line interface:
$ cd samples/hello_world
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DBOARD=nrf52_pca10040 ..
$ cd build
$ make

This adds an implementation of Xoroshiro128+ PRNG, based on the
original implementation at [1]. This pseudorandom number generator
will use the entropy driver to obtain the seed.
While it uses only 128 bits of state, it's pretty robust for non-crypto
safe applications.

Instead of every hardware number generator driver providing an
implementation of this function, use the random device API to
centralize the implementation of this function.
This is a very simplistic function that can be seen as a stepping stone
to refactor the random number generation in Zephyr.

This should clear up some of the confusion with random number
generators and drivers that obtain entropy from the hardware. Also,
many hardware number generators have limited bandwidth, so it's natural
for their output to be only used for seeding a random number generator.

Some "random" drivers are not drivers at all: they just implement the
function `sys_rand32_get()`. Move those to a random subsystem in
preparation for a reorganization.
