random: do not export add_vmfork_randomness() unless needed

Since add_vmfork_randomness() is only called from vmgenid.o, we can
guard it in CONFIG_VMGENID, similarly to how we do with
add_disk_randomness() and CONFIG_BLOCK. If we ever have multiple things
calling into add_vmfork_randomness(), we can add another shared Kconfig
symbol for that, but for now, this is good enough. Even though
add_vmfork_randomess() is a pretty small function, removing it means
that there are only calls to crng_reseed(false) and none to
crng_reseed(true), which means the compiler can constant propagate the
false, removing branches from crng_reseed() and its descendants.

Additionally, we don't even need the symbol to be exported if
CONFIG_VMGENID is not a module, so conditionalize that too.
