/*
Package prng implements a seeded, unbiased PRNG that is suitable for use
cases including obfuscation, network jitter, load balancing.

Seeding is based on crypto/rand.Read and the PRNG stream is provided by
chacha20. As such, this PRNG is suitable for high volume cases such as
generating random bytes per IP packet as it avoids the syscall overhead
(context switch/spinlock) of crypto/rand.Read.

This PRNG also supports replay use cases, where its intended to reproduce the
same traffic shape or protocol attributes there were previously produced.

This PRNG is _not_ for security use cases including production cryptographic
key generation.

Limitations: there is a cycle in the PRNG stream, after roughly 2^64 * 2^38-64
bytes; and the global instance initialized in init() ignores seeding errors.

It is safe to make concurrent calls to a PRNG instance, including the global
instance, but the caller is responsible for serializing multiple calls as
required for replay.

PRNG conforms to io.Reader and math/rand.Source, with additional helper
functions.
