vdso: Add generic random data storage
Extend the generic vDSO data storage with a page for the random state data.
The random state data is stored in a dedicated page, as the existing
storage page is only meant for time-related, time-namespace-aware data.
This simplifies to access logic to not need to handle time namespaces
anymore and also frees up more space in the time-related page.
In case further generic vDSO data store is required it can be added to
the random state page.

lib/vdso: Avoid highres update if clocksource is not VDSO capable
If the current clocksource is not VDSO capable there is no point in
updating the high resolution parts of the VDSO data.
Replace the architecture specific check with a check for a VDSO capable
clocksource and skip the update if there is none.
