Proposal:
Add `Random` instances for:
* all the types in `Data.Int`:
(`Int` is already provided)
`Int8`,
`Int16`,
`Int32`,
`Int64`
* all the types in `Data.Word`:
`Word`,
`Word8`,
`Word16`,
`Word32`,
`Word64`
* almost all the types in `Foreign.C.Types`:
`CChar`,
`CSChar`,
`CUChar`,
`CShort`,
`CUShort`,
`CInt`,
`CUInt`,
`CLong`,
`CULong`,
`CPtrdiff`,
`CSize`,
`CWchar`
`CSigAtomic`,
`CLLong`,
`CULLong`,
`CIntPtr`,
`CUIntPtr`,
`CIntMax`,
`CUIntMax`,
`CFloat`,
`CDouble`
Does it make sense to have `Random` instances for `CClock` and `CTime`?
