From: Khem Raj <raj.khem at gmail.com>

with openSSL 1.1.1d we start seeing errors like

Error Generating Key
139979727451584:error:2406C06E:random number generator:RAND_DRBG_instantiate:error retrieving entropy:../openssl-1.1.1d/crypto/rand/drbg_lib.c:342:

when using openssl from openssl-native on build hosts, this is due to
limiting the random seed to devrandom, to support older hosts, since the
option allows to have a comma separated list of methods to try, we can
try the default first and if that fails then fallback to devrandom, this
will ensure that it keeps working with build systems which dont support
getrandom()
