Michael Brown 742e43be05 [rng] Use SHA-256 for Hash_df, and validate the hash function strength
ANS X9.82 Part 4 (April 2011 Draft) Section 13.3.4.2 states that "When
using the derivation function based on a hash function, the output
length of the hash function shall meet or exceed the security strength
indicated by the min_entropy parameter in the Get_entropy_input call",
although this criteria is missing from the pseudocode provided in the
same section.

Add a test for this condition, and upgrade from SHA-1 to SHA-256 since
SHA-1 has an output length of 160 bits, which is insufficient for
generating the (128 * 3/2 = 192) bits required when instantiating the
128-bit strength DRBG.
