[x] vm/guest: uninstall rngd: unnecessary for virtio-rng since kernel 3.17, which introduced khwrngd:
a kernel thread which provides the same functionality, but is integrated in the kernel, and started by default by the hwrng driver as soon as the device is initialized.
haveged unnecessary on virtual machines, which get their entropy form the host via virtio-rng:
[x] vm/guest uninstall haveged;
[x] base and vm/host install haveged on physical machines;
[x] added a fix to vm/guest so it could be tested in check mode.
