patch to add darn instruction support

The attached patch to add support for the darn instruction uses a clean helper
to add the support.  The clean helper uses an inline assembly statement to call
the
darn (Deliver a Random Number) instruction.  This is not the normal or
preferred way to support an instruction.  AMD 64 used a dirty helper to support
its random number generator.  I looked at C code random number generators but
did not a good solution.  

Julian, please let me know if you are ok with this non-standard implementation
for supporting the random number generation instruction.
