nanoBSD: disable entropy caching and early hostuuid

(In reply to Jose Luis Duran from comment #2)

Thanks for the pointer, I added it to the patch to be consistent -
/var/db/entropy is empty at boot time, anyways. No need for cron to save
anything.

I'm not sure about the exact boot order here, but maybe it is possible to use
some external drive for the entropy to mitigate the wear?
