Add a RNG driver for the BCM283x and wire it up for the Raspberry Pi 3
platform so that the random number generator is accessible to the OS
loader via the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL. This is used by the KASLR implementation
in the arm64 Linux kernel to randomize the placement of various parts of
the kernel.

Changes since v2:
- move the RNG specific SoC definitions into the Bcm2836.h common header
- add patch that wires up the driver into the RPi3 platform
