RFR: 8098581 SecureRandom.nextBytes() hurts performance with small size requests

[Seán Coffey]

Hey Tony,

looks like a fix that could come back to jdk8u-dev at some stage. Thanks 
for taking this one on.

Adding SecureRandom to the sunpkcs11-solaris.cfg file is a nice move. 
Would you agree that JDK-8058455 could be closed out as a duplicate ?

Regards,
Sean.
