Nick Mathewson b3416476b4 Remove all uses of weak_rng.
I'm not removing the weak_rng code itself yet, since it is possible
that we will want to revert one of these.

o Minor features (defense in depth):
- Tor now uses a fast cryptographically strong PRNG even for decisions
that we do not believe are security-sensitive. Previously, for
performance reasons, we had used a trivially predictable linear
congruential generator algorithm for certain load-balancing and
statistical sampling decisions. Now we use our fast RNG in those cases.
Closes ticket 29542.
