Change subject: Enable GnuTLS fallback
......................................................................
Enable GnuTLS fallback
On systems with GNU/Linux kernel older than 3.17 (Debian 8 "jessie" for
example) the osmo_get_rand_id() would always return failure due to
missing getrandom() syscall.
To support such systems, let's add fallback code which uses GnuTLS
library. It can be disabled explicitly via '--disable-gnutls' option at
compile-time, otherwise ./configure will fail if both getrandom() and
GnuTLS are not available. When building with '--enable-embedded' the
fallback is disabled automatically.
