Set a more reasonable timeout for calculating the initial seed. The reference manuals says that "The initial seed takes approximately 2,000,000 clock cycles." The rngc peripheral clock runs at >= 33.25MHz, so seeding takes at most 60ms. A timeout of 200ms is more appropriate than the current value of 3 seconds.
