Tim Düsterhus 52c495140b random: Clean up cross-references for randomness related functions (#2008)
* random: Reference the corresponding Randomizer methods in random_(bytes|int)

* random: Cross-reference the Randomizer in `str_shuffle()`

* random: Cross-reference the Randomizer in `shuffle()`

* random: Cross-reference the Randomizer in `array_rand()`

* random: Cross-reference `random_bytes()` in `uniqid()`

* random: Do not cross-reference `uniqid()` in `openssl_random_pseudo_bytes()`

uniqid() really is no good alternative to *anything*. In the vast majority of
cases it is better replaced by `bin2hex(random_bytes(…))`.

* random: Replace the `mt_rand()` cross-reference in `openssl_random_pseudo_bytes()` with `random_int()`

random_int() is a CSPRNG like openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(), mt_rand() is not.
