// RandomStream allows for generation of pseudo-random values, from a seed.
//
// We use this for consistent 'random' numbers across the client and server.
// We want to generate probably-unique IDs on the client, and we ideally want
// the server to generate the same IDs when it executes the method.
//
// For generated values to be the same, we must seed ourselves the same way,
// and we must keep track of the current state of our pseudo-random generators.
// We call this state the scope. By default, we use the current DDP method
// invocation as our scope.  DDP now allows the client to specify a randomSeed.
// If a randomSeed is provided it will be used to seed our random sequences.
// In this way, client and server method calls will generate the same values.
//
// We expose multiple named streams; each stream is independent
// and is seeded differently (but predictably from the name).
// By using multiple streams, we support reordering of requests,
// as long as they occur on different streams.
//
// @param options {Optional Object}
//   seed: Array or value - Seed value(s) for the generator.
//                          If an array, will be used as-is
//                          If a value, will be converted to a single-value array
//                          If omitted, a random array will be used as the seed.
