efi: Generate stack protector canary at build time if urandom is available

Generating the canary at build time allows the canary to be different for
every build which could limit the effectiveness of certain exploits.
Fallback to the statically generated random bytes if /dev/urandom is not
readable, e.g. Windows.

On 32-bit architectures, which use a 32-bit canary, reduce the canary to
4 bytes with one byte being NUL to filter out string buffer overflow attacks.
