Merge #18364: random: remove getentropy() fallback for macOS < 10.12

f9f210d8de doc: fix GetTimeMicros() comment in random.cpp (fanquake)
a889711562 rand: remove getentropy() fallback for macOS < 10.12 (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  We [no longer support macOS < 10.12](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17550) (our binaries will not run), so remove the fallback for when `getentropy()` wasn't available. From the manpage:

  ```bash
  HISTORY
       The getentropy() function appeared in OSX 10.12
  ```

  Note that compiling on macOS you'll see a new unused function warning:
  ```bash
  random.cpp:256:13: warning: unused function 'GetDevURandom' [-Wunused-function]
  static void GetDevURandom(unsigned char *ent32)
              ^
  1 warning generated.
  ```

  This will likely be addressed as part of #17563.
