Kashyap Chamarthy 9a893e80c2 useful-image-properties.rst: Update default RNG source
Nova's libvirt driver has changed[*] the default source from /dev/random
to /dev/urandom:

    "Since libvirt 1.3.4, any RNG (Random Number Generator) device path
    (that returns random numbers when read!) is accepted. However, the
    recommended source of entropy is `/dev/urandom` (it is non-blocking;
    and doesn't have the same limitations of `dev/random`, which is a
    legacy interface)."

Update the relevant Glance documentation to reflect that.
