Remove ambiguity in rand_pool_add[_end] return value
When these two functions returned zero, it could mean: 1. that an error occured. In their case, the error is an overflow of the pool, i.e. the correct response from the caller would be to stop trying to fill the pool. 2. that there isn't enought entropy acquired yet, i.e. the correct response from the caller would be to try and add more entropy to the pool. Because of this ambiguity, the returned zero turns out to be useless. This change makes the returned value more consistent. 1 means the addition of new entropy was successful, 0 means it wasn't. To know if the pool has been filled enough, the caller will have to call some other function, such as rand_pool_entropy_available().
