Adjust to random-seed move

For some time, GNU/Linux systems have put their random-seed file
somewhere other than where src/filelock.c looks for it.
Catch up to this by having 'configure' scout for it.
* configure.ac (BOOT_TIME_FILE):
Define this at configure-time.
* nt/inc/ms-w32.h (BOOT_TIME_FILE): Override 'configure'.
* src/filelock.c (BOOT_TIME_FILE): Remove default definition,
since 'configure' defaults it now.
