Running BDiff and BPatch v1.0.0-beta with `--version` command reports BDiff-1.0.0 2023-06-02 BPatch-1.0.0 2023-06-02 where BDiff-1.0.0-beta 2023-06-02 BPatch-1.0.0-beta 2023-06-02 were expected.

There are `RandomFrom` functions in `System.Math` for all the Float array types + `Integer`, `Int64` and `UInt64` arrays. There also `RandomFrom` functions in `System.AnsiStrings` and `System.SysUtils` for arrays of ANSI...
