Implement Xoroshiro116+ as 'exrop' with fixes.
Deprecate all old algorithms but reincarnate 'exs1024' as 'exs1024s'
and 'exsplus' as 'exsp' with fixes.
Fixes:
* Avoid skew for uniform integers caused by using a simple 'rem'
operation for range confinement. Correctness requires retry
with new random value for an unfortunate first value.
* Implement a correct algorithm that collects enough random
bits for ranges larger than the generator's precision.
* Fix uniform density for floats by acquiring 53 bits
then multiplying with 2.0^(-53) which produces floats
on the form N * 2.0^(-53).

Jump functions returns the state after performing jump calculation to a
rand module internal state, which is equivalent to perform a large
number of calls of calculating new states for XorShift*/+ algorithms.
This commit add jump functions for exsplus and exs1024 algorithms, and a
wrapper function jump/1. The wrapper function will cause error with
reason "not_implemented" if the jump function for the algorithm is not
implemented.
This commit adds following new functionalities:
- Add new functions rand:jump/0 and rand:jump/1
- Add the member jump to type alg_handler(), a fun for performing
the jump function
- Add jump functions for exsplus, equivalent to 2^64 calls
- Add jump functions for exs1024, equivalent to 2^512 calls
- Revise seed_put/1, seed/1, seed/2
See <https://github.com/erlang/otp/pull/1235#discussion_r86950557>
- Add dummy jump function for exs64 calling
erlang:error(not_implemented)
- Add jump function test cases as follows:
* Add Common Test group reference_jump
* Add tests for jump/0 to reference_jump_procdict/1
* Rename tests for jump/1 to reference_jump_state/1
* Rename gen_jump/1 to gen_jump_1/1
* Add Common Tests reference_jump_procdict and reference_jump_state
to the group reference_jump
- Add jump function documentation

from 2015 to 2015-2016.

It is needed in various tests. It uses the Ziggurat algorithm, which
is the fastest that I know.
