ChaCha8Rand Implementation in Rust

Reproducible, robust and (last but not least) fast pseudorandomness.

This crate implements the chacha8rand specification, originally designed for Go's math/rand/v2 package. The language-independent specification and test vector helps with long-term reproducibility and interoperability. Building on the ChaCha8 stream cipher ensures high statistical quality and removes entire classes of "you're holding it wrong"-style problems that lead to sub-par output. It's also carefully designed and implemented (using SIMD instructions when available) to be so fast that it shouldn't ever be a bottleneck. However, it should not be used for cryptography.
