Hello Jenkins Builder,

I'd like you to reexamine a change.  Please visit

    https://gerrit.osmocom.org/4593

to look at the new patch set (#2).

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. To support
such systems, let's add fallback code which uses GnuTLS library. It have
to be enabled explicitly via '--enable-gnutls' option at compile-time.
