Even with MY_DISABLED_SERIAL defined, the linker is still adding the
Serial object to the binary.
That's because a) the MySensors *.cpp files are actually included
into the sketch and compiled as part of it (and not compiled
separately and then linked) and b) due the the default(?) behavior of
the linker (https://github.com/arduino/Arduino/issues/4579).
This commit changes the way random numbers are available
with MySensors.
The AVR platform uses a 32 Bit random seed build from a floating
analog pin. The way of the generation of this seed is FIPS 140-2
compliant.
For support MCU with a fast way to generate random data, the
hwGetentropy() command is now available to allow rapid generation
of random data.
The ESP8266 platform uses the internal random source for randomness
for hwGetentropy() and Arduino's random() function.
The NRF5 platform initializes the pseudo random number generator
from internal hardware number generator. The internal AES-ECB unit
generates random data after filling with HWRNG data by AES-CBC.
On Linux getrandom() is implemented via syscall().

ESP8266 = ~20us (RANDOM_REG32), 380us (old sha204Soft)
All Nonce results tested for FIPS 140-2 compliance successfully.
