/// Return `len` cryptographically-secure random or pseudo-random bytes.

/// This function must produce data at least as cryptographically secure and
/// fast as an adequately seeded cryptographically-secure pseudo-random
/// number generator (CSPRNG). It must not block, from the perspective of
/// the calling program, under any circumstances, including on the first
/// request and on requests for numbers of bytes. The returned data must
/// always be unpredictable.
///
/// This function must always return fresh data. Deterministic environments
/// must omit this function, rather than implementing it with deterministic
/// data.
