random32: remove net_rand_state from the latent entropy gcc plugin

It turns out that the plugin right now ends up being really unhappy about the change from 'static' to 'extern' storage that happened in commit f227e3e ("random32: update the net random state on interrupt and activity"). This is probably a trivial fix for the latent_entropy plugin, but for now, just remove net_rand_state from the list of things the plugin worries about.
