ctr_drbg: Clarify reseed_counter values before seeding

Browse source 
Before the initial seeding, reseed_counter used to always be 0. Now, the
value depends on whether or not the user has explicitly set the amount
of data to get from the nonce (via e.g.
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len()). Add comments to clarify the possible
values reseed_counter can have before the initial seeding.
