      1 .. http:get:: /seed
      2 
      3   Return an entropy seed. The Donau will return a high-entropy
      4   value that will differ for every call.  The response is NOT in
      5   JSON, but simply high-entropy binary data in the HTTP body.
      6   This API should be used by wallets to guard themselves against
      7   running on low-entropy (bad PRNG) hardware. Naturally, the entropy
      8   returned MUST be mixed with locally generated entropy.
