		Package entropy provides the passive entropy source for the FIPS 140-3
		module. It is only used in FIPS mode by [crypto/internal/fips140/drbg.Read].
		
		This complies with IG 9.3.A, Additional Comment 12, which until January 1,
		2026 allows new modules to meet an [earlier version] of Resolution 2(b):
		"A software module that contains an approved DRBG that receives a LOAD
		command (or its logical equivalent) with entropy obtained from [...] inside
		the physical perimeter of the operational environment of the module [...]."
		
		Distributions that have their own SP 800-90B entropy source should replace
		this package with their own implementation.
Package-Level Functions (only one)

	 func Depleted(LOAD func(*[48]byte))
		Depleted notifies the entropy source that the entropy in the module is
		"depleted" and provides the callback for the LOAD command.
