* \brief This function sets the amount of entropy grabbed on each
* seed or reseed.
*
* During the initial seeding, mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed() additionally grabs
* half this amount to create the nonce.
*
* The default value is given by the security strength, which depends on the
* hash used. See the documentation of mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed() for details.
