Notes: * Make _libssh2_random return code consistent Previously, _libssh2_random was advertized in HACKING.CRYPTO as returning `void` (and was implemented that way in os400qc3.c), but that was in other crypto backends a lie; _libssh2_random is (a macro expanding) to an int-value expression or function. Moreover, that returned code was: — 0 or success, -1 on error for the MbedTLS & WinCNG crypto backends But also: — 1 on success, -1 or 0 on error for the OpenSSL backend! – 1 on success, error cannot happen for libgcrypt! This commit makes explicit that _libssh2_random can fail (because most of the underlying crypto functions can indeed fail!), and it makes its result code consistent: 0 on success, -1 on error. This is related to issue #519 https://github.com/libssh2/libssh2/issues/519 It fixes the first half of it. * Don't silent errors of _libssh2_random Make sure to check the returned code of _libssh2_random(), and propagates any failure. A new LIBSSH_ERROR_RANDGEN constant is added to libssh2.h None of the existing error constants seemed fit. This commit is related to d74285b68450c0e9ea6d5f8070450837fb1e74a7 and to https://github.com/libssh2/libssh2/issues/519 (see the issue for more info.) It closes #519. Credit: Paul Capron
