Hi all,

As discussed at
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-June/033075.html,
this patch saves seed with ** good ** random number as early as
possible, as opposed to the original behavior, which saves a random
number when shutdown.

Note:
1. If seed loading failed, it will not save a new seed. May not be the
proper behavior?
2. The STATUS sent by the second and third sd_notify() are not shown
in "systemctl status systemd-random-seed.service", need some kind of
improvement.

Please comment and give suggestions :)
