    [entropy] Raise USB baud rate to match application 'cc20rng'
    
    Using different baud rates for the two otherwise compatible
    applications risk confusing users of both applications. An espeicially
    unlucky case is setting host side to 460800 while reading from a
    board set to 921600 -- the stream will look random while it's actually
    pretty bad.
    
    Raising 'entropy' rather than lowering 'cc20rng' is motivated by the
    fact that cc20rng saturates 460800 baud(*) with its ~75 kB/s output.
    
    (*) 460800 baud should be 57.6 kB/s or 51.2 kB/s, depending on whether
    or not the stop bit is counted towards the baud rate. I would suppose
    it is.
