Requests are now created in the RngBackend parent class and the code path is shared by both rng-egd and rng-random. This commit fixes the rng-random implementation which processed only one request at a time and simply discarded all but the most recent one. In the guest this manifested as delayed completion of reads from virtio-rng, i.e. a read was completed only after another read was issued. By switching rng-random to use the same request queue as rng-egd, the unsafe stack-based allocation of the entropy buffer is eliminated and replaced with g_malloc. Signed-off-by:
