Checks getrandom availability on solaris.

To fix part of GH-15381.
gcc nor clang provides a constant to distinguish illumos and solaris
not the system provides a kernel version stamp like the BSD.
thus, we simply check the symbol and remaing purposely conservative in
the existing logic, using it only for solaris to avoid unexpected
breakages for other systems. would need a different fix for higher
branches.

random: Initialize the `mode` field when seeding in `php_random_default_status()` (#13690)

This is not just an issue due to missing initialization since moving the state
struct directly into the module globals. In earlier versions changing the mode
to `MT_RAND_PHP` within a single request would also affect the mode for
subsequent requests.

Original commit message follows:

This is a follow-up fix for GH-13579. The issue was detected in the nightly
MSAN build.

PHP 8.1 and below interpreted unknown modes as `MT_RAND_MT19937`, but PHP 8.2+
interprets them as `MT_RAND_PHP`.

Align the behavior with PHP 8.1 and below, because folks should be steered
towards the standard mode.

random: Move CSPRNG API into php_random_csprng.h (#13290)

This allows consumers of just the CSPRNG to include a much smaller header. It
also allows to verify at a glance whether a source file might use non-secure
randomness.

This commit includes the new header wherever the CSPRNG is used, possibly
replacing the inclusion of php_random.h if nothing else is used, but also
includes it in the main php_random.h header for compatibility.

random: Optimize data flow for the `generate` function of native engines (#13043)

Instead of returning the generated `uint64_t` and providing the size (i.e. the
number of bytes of the generated value) out-of-band via the
`last_generated_size` member of the `php_random_status` struct, the `generate`
function is now expected to return a new `php_random_result` struct containing
both the `size` and the `result`.

This has two benefits, one for the developer:

It's no longer possible to forget setting `last_generated_size` to the correct
value, because it now happens at the time of returning from the function.

and the other benefit is for performance:

The `php_random_result` struct will be returned as a register pair, thus the
`size` will be directly available without reloading it from main memory.

Checking a simplified version of `php_random_range64()` on Compiler Explorer
(“Godbolt”) with clang 17 shows a single change in the resulting assembly
showcasing the improvement (https://godbolt.org/z/G4WjdYxqx):

- add rbp, qword ptr [r14]
+ add rbp, rdx

Empirical testing confirms a measurable performance increase for the
`Randomizer::getBytes()` method:

<?php
$e = new Random\Engine\Xoshiro256StarStar(0);
$r = new Random\Randomizer($e);

var_dump(strlen($r->getBytes(100000000)));

goes from 250ms (before the change) to 220ms (after the change). While
generating 100 MB of random data certainly is not the most common use case, it
confirms the theoretical improvement in practice.

random: Remove check for HAVE_DEV_URANDOM

It cannot be decided whether the device is available at build time, PHP might
run in a container or chroot that does not expose the device. Simply attempt to
open it, if it does not exist it will fail.

This improves readability of php_random_bytes() by removing one layer of
preprocessor conditions.

random: Do not trust arc4random_buf() on glibc (#10390)

This effectively reverts #8984.

As discussed in #10327 which will enable the use of the getrandom(2) syscall on
NetBSD instead of relying on the userland arc4random_buf(), the CSPRNG should
prioritize security over speed [1] and history has shown that userland
implementations unavoidably fall short on the security side. In fact the glibc
implementation is a thin wrapper around the syscall due to security concerns
and thus does not provide any benefit over just calling getrandom(2) ourselves.

Even without any performance optimizations the CSPRNG should be plenty fast for
the vast majority of applications, because they often only need a few bytes of
randomness to generate a session ID. If speed is desired, the OO API offers
faster, but non-cryptographically secure engines.

Fix pre-PHP 8.2 compatibility for php_mt_rand_range() with MT_RAND_PHP (#9839)

* Fix pre-PHP 8.2 compatibility for php_mt_rand_range() with MT_RAND_PHP

As some left-over comments indicated:

> Legacy mode deliberately not inside php_mt_rand_range()
> to prevent other functions being affected

The broken scaler was only used for `php_mt_rand_common()`, not
`php_mt_rand_range()`. The former is only used for `mt_rand()`, whereas the
latter is used for `array_rand()` and others.

With the refactoring for the introduction of ext/random `php_mt_rand_common()`
and `php_mt_rand_range()` were accidentally unified, thus introducing a
behavioral change that was reported in FakerPHP/Faker#528.

This commit moves the checks for `MT_RAND_PHP` from the general-purpose
`range()` function back into `php_mt_rand_common()` and also into
`Randomizer::getInt()` for drop-in compatibility with `mt_rand()`.
