Hi.

To have a global "write to flash is okay" option instead of needing to
change different options with different semantics in different places.
For example if I want to make the lease file persistent, I would change

Hi,
if we plan to attach multiple functions to the option (e.g. persistent
lease file) then it would probably make sense to give it a generic name,
e.g.
"option persist 0/1"
or
"option save_state 0/1"

This commit:
1) seed /dev/urandom with a saved seed as early as possible
(see /lib/preinit/81_urandom_seed)
2) save a new seed if system.@system[0].write_urandom_seed_on_boot == 1
or if none exists. We use getrandom() so we are sure /dev/urandom
pool is initialized (see /etc/init.d/urandom
