rand: deprecate `rng`.
This should be called far less than it is because it does expensive OS
interactions and seeding of the internal RNG, `task_rng` amortises this
cost. The main problem is the name is so short and suggestive.

The direct equivalent is `StdRng::new`, which does precisely the same
thing.

The deprecation will make migrating away from the function easier.
