Refactor
std.internal.entropy
to provide reusable handles.This allows a more efficient use of the module on certain platforms (for future code).
To be fair, it might also make it slightly less efficient on others (e.g. Windows), though I think the reduction of TLS variables there might also be an improvement.
Please do not merge this yet. It needs further testing (that I haven’t performed yet).
Also, I’d prefer v2.112.0 to have the non-handle version of module which should be easier to deal with in case of any regressions that may arise.
