mbedtls_entropy_func returns up to MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes.
This is the output of a hash function and does not indicate how many
bytes of entropy went into the hash computation.
Enforce that mbedtls_entropy_func gathers a total of
MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes or more from strong sources. Weak
sources don't count for this calculation. This is complementary to the
per-source threshold mechanism.
In particular, we define system sources with a threshold of 32. But
when using SHA-512 for the entropy accumulator,
MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE = 64, so users can expect 64 bytes' worth
of entropy. Before, you only got 64 bytes of entropy if there were two
sources. Now you get 64 bytes of entropy even with a single source
with a threshold of 32.
