This is just wrong.  The test in user_reseed() always evaluates to
true, regardless of the value of kern.random.sys.seeded, because that
value is either "0" or "1" but never "".  This is *really* annoying
when you try to start a jail that has sshd enabled but doesn't have
keys yet.

Also, user_reseed() should be a separate script so that other scripts
that need entropy can depend on it instead of duplicating it.
