/**
 * This class provides a cryptographically strong random number
 * generator (RNG).
 *
 * <p>A cryptographically strong random number minimally complies with the
 * statistical random number generator tests specified in
 * <a href="https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/FIPS/NIST.FIPS.140-2.pdf">
 * <i>FIPS 140-2, Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules</i></a>,
 * section 4.9.1.
 * Additionally, {@code SecureRandom} must produce non-deterministic output.
 * Therefore, any seed material passed to a {@code SecureRandom} object must be
 * unpredictable, and all {@code SecureRandom} output sequences must be
 * cryptographically strong, as described in
 * <a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4086">
 * <i>RFC 4086: Randomness Requirements for Security</i></a>.
 *
 * <p> Many {@code SecureRandom} implementations are in the form of a
 * pseudo-random number generator (PRNG, also known as deterministic random
 * bits generator or DRBG), which means they use a deterministic algorithm
 * to produce a pseudo-random sequence from a random seed.
 * Other implementations may produce true random numbers,
 * and yet others may use a combination of both techniques.
 *
 * <p>A caller obtains a {@code SecureRandom} instance via the
 * no-argument constructor or one of the {@code getInstance} methods.
 * For example:
 *
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * SecureRandom r1 = new SecureRandom();
 * SecureRandom r2 = SecureRandom.getInstance("NativePRNG");
 * SecureRandom r3 = SecureRandom.getInstance("DRBG",
 *         DrbgParameters.instantiation(128, RESEED_ONLY, null));</pre>
 * </blockquote>
 *
 * <p> The third statement above returns a {@code SecureRandom} object of the
 * specific algorithm supporting the specific instantiate parameters. The
 * implementation's effective instantiated parameters must match this minimum
 * request but is not necessarily the same. For example, even if the request
 * does not require a certain feature, the actual instantiation can provide
 * the feature. An implementation may lazily instantiate a {@code SecureRandom}
 * until it's actually used, but the effective instantiate parameters must be
 * determined right after it's created and {@link #getParameters()} should
 * always return the same result unchanged.
 *
 * <p> Typical callers of {@code SecureRandom} invoke the following methods
 * to retrieve random bytes:
 *
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * SecureRandom random = new SecureRandom();
 * byte[] bytes = new byte[20];
 * random.nextBytes(bytes);</pre>
 * </blockquote>
 *
 * <p> Callers may also invoke the {@link #generateSeed} method
 * to generate a given number of seed bytes (to seed other random number
 * generators, for example):
 *
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * byte[] seed = random.generateSeed(20);</pre>
 * </blockquote>
 *
 * <p> A newly created PRNG {@code SecureRandom} object is not seeded (except
 * if it is created by {@link #SecureRandom(byte[])}). The first call to
 * {@code nextBytes} will force it to seed itself from an implementation-
 * specific entropy source. This self-seeding will not occur if {@code setSeed}
 * was previously called.
 *
 * <p> A {@code SecureRandom} can be reseeded at any time by calling the
 * {@code reseed} or {@code setSeed} method. The {@code reseed} method
 * reads entropy input from its entropy source to reseed itself.
 * The {@code setSeed} method requires the caller to provide the seed.
 *
 * <p> Please note that {@code reseed} may not be supported by all
 * {@code SecureRandom} implementations.
 *
 * <p> Some {@code SecureRandom} implementations may accept a
 * {@link SecureRandomParameters} parameter in its
 * {@link #nextBytes(byte[], SecureRandomParameters)} and
 * {@link #reseed(SecureRandomParameters)} methods to further
 * control the behavior of the methods.
 *
 * <p> Note: Depending on the implementation, the {@code generateSeed},
 * {@code reseed} and {@code nextBytes} methods may block as entropy is being
 * gathered, for example, if the entropy source is /dev/random on various
 * Unix-like operating systems.
 *
 * <h2> Thread safety </h2>
 * {@code SecureRandom} objects are safe for use by multiple concurrent threads.
 *
 * @implSpec
 * A {@code SecureRandom} service provider can advertise that it is thread-safe
 * by setting the <a href=
 * "{@docRoot}/../specs/security/standard-names.html#service-attributes">service
 * provider attribute</a> "ThreadSafe" to "true" when registering the provider.
 * Otherwise, this class will instead synchronize access to the following
 * methods of the {@code SecureRandomSpi} implementation:
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@link SecureRandomSpi#engineSetSeed(byte[])}
 * <li>{@link SecureRandomSpi#engineNextBytes(byte[])}
 * <li>{@link SecureRandomSpi#engineNextBytes(byte[], SecureRandomParameters)}
 * <li>{@link SecureRandomSpi#engineGenerateSeed(int)}
 * <li>{@link SecureRandomSpi#engineReseed(SecureRandomParameters)}
 * </ul>
