Fix the DRBG seed propagation
In a nutshell, reseed propagation is a compatibility feature with the sole
purpose to support the traditional way of (re-)seeding manually by calling
'RAND_add()' before 'RAND_bytes(). It ensures that the former has an immediate
effect on the latter *within the same thread*, but it does not care about
immediate reseed propagation to other threads. The implementation is lock-free,
i.e., it works without taking the lock of the primary DRBG.
Pull request #7399 not only fixed the data race issue #7394 but also changed
the original implementation of the seed propagation unnecessarily.
This commit reverts most of the changes of commit
1f98527659b8 and intends to
fix the data race while retaining the original simplicity of the seed propagation.
- use atomics with relaxed semantics to load and store the seed counter
- add a new member drbg->enable_reseed_propagation to simplify the
overflow treatment of the seed propagation counter
- don't handle races between different threads
This partially reverts commit
1f98527659b8290d442c4e1532452b9ba6463f1e.
