Add RAND_get_seed_source_name function to query the currently
active/configured/default seed source name.
This helps to query which seed source is used by default
programatically. And it also helps to display this information for the
users and auditors, when both SEED-SRC and JITTER are available. As
well as third-party seed sources (possibly wolfcrypt).
$ ./util/wrap.pl ./apps/openssl version -r
Seeding source: os-specific JITTER (3050000)
Active seed type: SEED-SRC
$ ./util/wrap.pl -jitter ./apps/openssl version -r
Seeding source: os-specific JITTER (3050000)
Active seed type: JITTER

There was a problem hiding this comment.
RAND_get0_seed_source_name I think.
