runtime: fix gr::random API to be fixed-width 64 bit, use XOROSHIRO128+
Seeding being inconsistent between gr::random and things like fastnoise
source is an outstanding issue (#1559).
Fix that by fixing the API, and pivoting to our built-in XOROSHIRO128+,
which is also substantially faster than MT19937.
For that purpose, introduce, and python-bind, a wrapper class that can
be used with STL distribution shapers.
Add a unit test for the (P)RNG.
