[PIRK-2] Enhance Pallier acquisition of PRNG provider.
As suggested, this moves the spec for the secure random into the Pirk
properties file.
Note that I have left the provider commented out at the moment, to ensure
it works on a broad selection of Java runtimes, and is as close to the original
code intent as possible.
In production users would likely specify a secure system PRNG, or specify
both algorithm and provider in the Pirk properties file. Therefore I would not
object to commenting out both properties by default ;-)
