Compatibility library for proposed simplified random number generator

Random Compat

What is this library?

This is a proof-of-concept (and potentially a compatibility library) for a simplified random number generation API to be proposed for PHP core for 5.6.

This library can generate strong random numbers and cryptographically secure random numbers.

Usage

While the API is in flux, refer to test.php for example usage and the Random class itself under lib.
