Full Changelog: 0.7.0...0.8.0

Changelog (from 0.6.1)

• Reworked the API heavily
  • The Rng trait now uses const generics for output length, rather than an associated type
  • Added Rng::fill_bytes, and reworked RandomGen implementations to use it.
  • Rng::reseed was move into the new SeedableRng trait.
  • All RNGs now have a Debug implementation
• Completely reworked the C API.
• Added BufferedRng, a wrapper around an Rng that buffers output, and will use buffered output rather than wasting perfectly good random bytes.
• Set MSRV at Rust 1.56.0
  • Rust 2021 is used.
• Removed nanorand-py (not like anyone used it anyways)
• Fixed signed integer generation!
• Clarified in the docs that RandomRange will panic with an invalid range.

Changelog

• Fixed an unsoundness in TlsWyrand allowing for aliased mutable references.

This is the big one, folks! Breaking changes, obviously.

Changelog

• Renamed RNG to Rng
• RandomGen will no longer panic if lower > upper (#24)
• Added RandomGen support for signed integers (#9) and floats (#20)
  • RandomGen for float will generate an float in the range of 0 <= x <= 1
• Added RandomRange support for signed integers (#9)
• Fixed RandomRange having weird in/exclusivity (#21)
• ChaCha now has a const generic of how many rounds it is. This speeds it up slightly.
• TlsWyRand is now reference-counted.
• Added some unit tests to ensure that RandomRange works properly.
