Revert "Replace PostmasterRandom() with a stronger way of generating randomness." This reverts commit 9e083fd4683294f41544e6d0d72f6e258ff3a77c. That was a few bricks shy of a load: * Query cancel stopped working * Buildfarm member pademelon stopped working, because the box doesn't have /dev/urandom nor /dev/random. This clearly needs some more discussion, and a quite different patch, so revert for now.
