Subject[PATCH 05/14] random: move transfer accounting into account() helper
This brings the logic that determines "min" and "reserved" next to
the closely related logic that uses it, in account(), and reduces
the number of different points involved in communicating "min" and
"reserved" from one place to the other.

This will be particularly helpful in the next commit, where we add
another parameter to account() and extract_entropy().
