Introduce a RandonNumberGenerator class. Refactor the random/private_random uses in Isolate/Context. The RandomNumberGenerator is a pseudorandom number generator with 48-bit state. It is properly seeded using either (1) the --random-seed if specified, or (2) the entropy_source function if configured, or (3) /dev/urandom if available, or (4) falls back to Time and TimeTicks based seeding. Each Isolate now contains a RandomNumberGenerator, which replaces the previous private_random_seed. Every native context still has its own random_seed. But this random seed is now properly initialized during bootstrapping, instead of on-demand initialization. This will allow us to cleanup and speedup the HRandom implementation quite a lot (this is delayed for a followup CL)! Also stop messing with the system rand()/random(), which should not be done from a library anyway! We probably re-seeded the libc rand()/random() after the application (i.e. Chrome) already seeded it (with better entropy than what we used). Another followup CL will replace the use of the per-isolate random number generator for the address randomization and thereby get rid of the Isolate::UncheckedCurrent() usage in the platform code.
