Update the allocation logic for the virtual mapping of the UEFI runtime services to start from a randomized base address if KASLR is in effect, and if the UEFI firmware exposes an implementation of EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL. This makes it more difficult to predict the location of exploitable data structures in the runtime UEFI firmware, which increases robustness against attacks. Note that these regions are only mapped during the time a runtime service call is in progress, and only on a single CPU at a time, bit given the lack of a downside, let's enable it nonetheless.
