Implements a selection of PCG random number generators.
PCG is a family of simple fast space-efficient statistically good algorithms for random number generation. [Melissa O'Neill, Harvey Mudd College, 2014].
The PCG algorithms are not suitable for cryptographic uses, but perform well in statistical tests, use little memory and are fairly fast. See the pcg-random website.
This crate depends on rand_core and is part of the Rand project.

rand_pcg is no_std compatible by default.
The serde feature includes implementations of Serialize and Deserialize
for the included RNGs.
