Move the process of storing entropy from /dev/random and reseeding with
it at boot time closer to the way we want it to be in the final version.

* Move the default directory to /var/db/entropy
* Run the entropy saving cron job every 11 minutes. This seems
  to be a better default, although still bikeshed material.
* Feed /dev/random some cheesy "entropy" from various commands
  and files before the disks are mounted. This gives /dev/random
  a better chance of running without blocking early.
* Move the reseeding with previously stored entropy to the point
  immediately after the disks are mounted.
* Make the harvesting script a little safer in regards to the
  possibility of accidentally overwriting something other
  than a regular file.
