HMAC_RNG - based on the design described in "On Extract-then-Expand
Key Derivation Functions and an HMAC-based KDF" by Hugo Krawczyk
(henceforce, 'E-t-E')
 
However it actually can be parameterized with any two MAC functions,
not restricted to HMAC (this variation is also described in Krawczyk's
paper), for instance one could use HMAC(SHA-512) as the extractor
and CMAC(AES-256) as the PRF.
