Russ Cox 8631fcbf31 math/rand/v2: add PCG-DXSM
For the original math/rand, we ported Plan 9's random number
generator, which was a refinement by Ken Thompson of an algorithm
by Don Mitchell and Jim Reeds, which Mitchell in turn recalls as
having been derived from an algorithm by Marsaglia. At its core,
it is an additive lagged Fibonacci generator (ALFG).

Whatever the details of the history, this generator is nowhere
near the current state of the art for simple, pseudo-random
generators.

This CL adds an implementation of Melissa O'Neill's PCG, specifically
the variant PCG-DXSM, which she defined after writing the PCG paper
and which is now the default in Numpy. The update is slightly slower
(a few multiplies and adds, instead of a few adds), but the state
is dramatically smaller (2 words instead of 607). The statistical
output properties are better too.

A followup CL will delete the old generator.

PCG is the only change here, so no benchmarks should be affected.
Including them anyway as further evidence for caution.

README cmd/api: require proposal # for new API features 2022-03-14 21:43:16 +00:00

Files in this directory are data for Go's API checker ("go tool api", in src/cmd/api).

Each file is a list of API features, one per line.

go1.txt (and similarly named files) are frozen once a version has been
shipped. Each file adds new lines but does not remove any.

except.txt lists features that may disappear without breaking true
compatibility.

Starting with go1.19.txt, each API feature line must end in "#nnnnn"
giving the GitHub issue number of the proposal issue that accepted
the new API. This helps with our end-of-cycle audit of new APIs.
The same requirement applies to next/* (described below), which will
become a go1.XX.txt for XX >= 19.

The next/ directory contains the only files intended to be mutated.
Each file in that directory contains a list of features that may be added
to the next release of Go. The files in this directory only affect the
warning output from the go api tool. Each file should be named
nnnnn.txt, after the issue number for the accepted proposal.
(The #nnnnn suffix must also appear at the end of each line in the file;
that will be preserved when next/*.txt is concatenated into go1.XX.txt.)
