  1. NewSeeded: rename new → try_new, add new_with_fallback 

    Rename OsRng::new → try_new too for consitency
Add dependency on time crate
(Note: better to use chrono, but has no real equivalent to precise_time_ns().)

  1. Revise StrongClockRng (mostly better mixing) 

    Also appears to double performance; this might be because the >sec parts
of the time are now ignored and/or algorithm being more parallelizable.
