shield Recommended update for haveged

SUSE-SLE-DESKTOP-12-2015-128

haveged has been added to the initial ramdisk to generate randomness earlier during bootup. Also it was changed to be active longer during shutdown phases. This helps when randomness is lacking during bootup which can regular happen during Virtual Machine scenarios.
