syscall_random(): don't fail if the getentropy() function is a dummy
Several embedded toolchains may provide dummy implemented getentropy() function which always returns -1 and sets errno to the ENOSYS. As a result the function SSL_CTX_new() fails to create a new context. Fixes #13002 Reviewed-by: Paul Dale <paul.dale@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Matthias St. Pierre <Matthias.St.Pierre@ncp-e.com> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/13112)
