This class provides a reasonably-secure random number generator that
does not need seeding. That is quite unlike qrand(), which requires a
seed and is low-quality (definitely not secure).
This class is also like std::random_device, but better. It provides an
operator() like std::random_device, but unlike that, it also provides a
way to fill a buffer with random data, not just one 32-bit quantity.
It's also stateless.
Finally, it also implements std::seed_seq-like generate(). It obeys the
standard requirement of the range (32-bit) but not that of the algorithm
(if you wanted that, you'd use std::seed_seq itself). Instead,
generate() fills with pure random data.
