1af979b492 tests/qtest/npcm7xx_rng-test: dump random data on failure
Dump the collected random data after a randomness test failure.

Note that this relies on the test having called
g_test_set_nonfatal_assertions() so we don't abort immediately on the
assertion failure.

8006c9842b tests/qtest/npcm7xx_rng-test: count runs properly
The number of runs is equal to the number of 0-1 and 1-0 transitions,
plus one. Currently, it's counting the number of times these transitions
do _not_ happen, plus one.

ffb4fbf90a tests/qtest/npcm7xx_rng-test: Disable randomness tests
The randomness tests in the NPCM7xx RNG test fail intermittently
but fairly frequently. On my machine running the test in a loop:
 while QTEST_QEMU_BINARY=./qemu-system-aarch64 ./tests/qtest/npcm7xx_rng-test; do true; done

will fail in less than a minute with an error like:
ERROR:../../tests/qtest/npcm7xx_rng-test.c:256:test_first_byte_runs:
assertion failed (calc_runs_p(buf.l, sizeof(buf) * BITS_PER_BYTE) > 0.01): (0.00286205989 > 0.01)

(Failures have been observed on all 4 of the randomness tests,
not just first_byte_runs.)

It's not clear why these tests are failing like this, but intermittent
failures make CI and merge testing awkward, so disable running them
unless a developer specifically sets QEMU_TEST_FLAKY_RNG_TESTS when
running the test suite, until we work out the cause.

326ccfe240 hw/misc: Add npcm7xx random number generator
The RNG module returns a byte of randomness when the Data Valid bit is
set.

This implementation ignores the prescaler setting, and loads a new value
into RNGD every time RNGCS is read while the RNG is enabled and random
data is available.

A qtest featuring some simple randomness tests is included.
