hw/arm/virt: dt: add rng-seed property
In 60592cfed2 ("hw/arm/virt: dt: add kaslr-seed property"), the
kaslr-seed property was added, but the equally as important rng-seed
property was forgotten about, which has identical semantics for a
similar purpose. This commit implements it in exactly the same way as
kaslr-seed. It then changes the name of the disabling option to reflect
that this has more to do with randomness vs determinism, rather than
something particular about kaslr.
