Implements the ISAAC and ISAAC-64 random number generators.
ISAAC stands for "Indirection, Shift, Accumulate, Add, and Count" which are the principal bitwise operations employed. It is the most advanced of a series of array based random number generator designed by Robert Jenkins in 199612.
ISAAC is notably fast and produces excellent quality random numbers for non-cryptographic applications.

rand_isaac is no_std compatible. It does not require any functionality
outside of the core lib, thus there are no features to configure.
The serde feature includes implementations of Serialize and Deserialize
for the included RNGs.
