      SplittableRandom supports the following:

       * in security-sensitive applications. Additionally,
       * default-constructed instances do not use a cryptographically random
       * seed unless the {@linkplain System#getProperty system property}
       * {@code java.util.secureRandomSeed} is set to {@code true}.

      ThreadLocalRandom can do the same, but requires JDK-8024009 to be fixed first.
