Markus Theil a8efd663ed rng-tools: increase initialization robustness together with jitterentropy-3.4.1
With jitterentropy 3.4.1 the initial timeout of rng-tools for the
initialization of jitterentropy seems to be too small in some cases.
Set a larger timeout for tests. Add comment how this timeout can be
set by users needing it.
