openssl -rand option not available on Alpine/LibreSSL #132

Description

Alpine has switched from OpenSSL to LibreSSL, which no longer supports -rand option and certificate generation fails with these params https://github.com/Dexus/pem/blob/master/lib/pem.js#L62

Is specifying the randomness source strictly required there? Both OpenSSL and LibreSSL work without it.

In my case, generating a ssl certificate upon first startup of a Docker container I doubt how random /var/log/mail:/var/log/messages are.
