gcrypt: Seed PRNG in init_random_seed_or_die().

The function is supposed to call srandom(3) to set the seed for a new
sequence of pseudo-random integers to be returned by random(3). The
openssl crypto backend does this, but the gcrypt one does not.

This is not a fatal flaw as we don't use random(3) for any
cryptographic purpose. Let's fix it anyway.
