Detect arc4random_stir() availability

Since http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=138238762705209&w=2
OpenSSH-portable fails to build on OpenBSD-current (post 5.4). This is
a problem for the OpenBSD ports tree which includes copies of the
openssh-portable source code.

Since other OSes have not implemented yet the improvements made since
10 years to the arc4random API, calling the arc4random_addrandom() or
arc4random_stir() functions is still necessary on those platforms.
Maybe one day we'll finally get rid of those functions.

The patch attached fixes build on OpenBSD-current and any other
platform willing to remove these functions.
