Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#24925: refactor: make GetRand a template, remove GetRandInt
ab1ea29ba1b8379a21fabd3dc859552c470a6421 refactor: make GetRand a template, remove GetRandInt (pasta) Pull request description: makes GetRand a template for which any integral type can be used, where the default behavior is to return a random integral up to the max of the integral unless a max is provided. This simplifies a lot of code from GetRand(std::numeric_limits<uint64_t>::max() -> GetRand<uint64_t>() ACKs for top commit: laanwj: Code review ACK ab1ea29ba1b8379a21fabd3dc859552c470a6421 Tree-SHA512: db5082a0e21783389f1be898ae73e097b31ab48cab1a2c0e29348a4adeb545d4098193aa72a547c6baa6e8205699aafec38d6a27b3d65522fb3246f91b4daae9
