Random number generation.

The key functions are `random()` and `Rng::gen()`. These are polymorphic
and so can be used to generate any type that implements `Rand`. Type inference
means that often a simple call to `rand::random()` or `rng.gen()` will
suffice, but sometimes an annotation is required, e.g. `rand::random::<f64>()`.

See the `distributions` submodule for sampling random numbers from
distributions like normal and exponential.

# Task-local RNG

There is built-in support for a RNG associated with each task stored
in task-local storage. This RNG can be accessed via `task_rng`, or
used implicitly via `random`. This RNG is normally randomly seeded
from an operating-system source of randomness, e.g. `/dev/urandom` on
Unix systems, and will automatically reseed itself from this source
after generating 32 KiB of random data.

# Examples

```rust
use std::rand;
use std::rand::Rng;

fn main() {
    let mut rng = rand::rng();
    if rng.gen() { // bool
        println!("int: {}, uint: {}", rng.gen::<int>(), rng.gen::<uint>())
    }
}
 ```

```rust
use std::rand;

fn main () {
    let tuple_ptr = rand::random::<~(f64, char)>();
    println!(tuple_ptr)
}
 ```
