bpo-40286: Remove C implementation of Random.randbytes() (GH-19797)
Remove _random.Random.randbytes(): the C implementation of
randbytes(). Implement the method in Python to ease subclassing:
randbytes() now directly reuses getrandbits().

bpo-40286: Add randbytes() method to random.Random (GH-19527)
Add random.randbytes() function and random.Random.randbytes()
method to generate random bytes.

Modify secrets.token_bytes() to use SystemRandom.randbytes()
rather than calling directly os.urandom().

Rename also genrand_int32() to genrand_uint32(), since it returns an
unsigned 32-bit integer, not a signed integer.

The _random module is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE defined.

Christian Heimes d914596a67 bpo-36559: random module: optimize sha512 import (GH-12742)
The random module now prefers the lean internal _sha512 module over hashlib
for seed(version=2) to optimize import time.

bpo-35513, unittest: TextTestRunner uses time.perf_counter() (GH-11180)
TextTestRunner of unittest.runner now uses time.perf_counter() rather
than time.time() to measure the execution time of a test: time.time()
can go backwards, whereas time.perf_counter() is monotonic.

Similar change made in libregrtest, pprint and random.
