   Repro: `RandomUtils.nextDouble(10, Math.nextUp(10))`; expected a value 
strictly below `endExclusive`, actual `10.000000000000002` (the exclusive 
bound) on 4953 of 10000 calls. `nextFloat` and the instance 
`randomDouble`/`randomFloat` behave the same.
   Cause: `randomDouble`/`randomFloat` scale with `startInclusive + 
(endExclusive - startInclusive) * nextDouble()`, and rounding in the multiply 
and add can land exactly on `endExclusive`, which the Javadoc documents as not 
included. Same mechanism as LANG-1592, which fixed `nextLong(long, long)`; the 
double and float paths kept the unclamped scaling.
   Fix: clamp an out-of-range result to `Math.nextDown(endExclusive)`, the 
correction `java.util.Random#nextDouble(double, double)` applies. The 
regression tests use a range one ULP wide, where the unpatched code returns the 
bound about half of the time; they fail before the change and pass after, and 
the default `mvn` goal is green.

Guidance](https://www.apache.org/legal/generative-tooling.html) if you use 
Artificial Intelligence (AI).
   - [x] I used AI to create any part of, or all of, this pull request. Which 
AI tool was used to create this pull request, and to what extent did it 
contribute? Claude Code was used to find the defect and draft the fix and 
tests; the change was reviewed and the build and tests were run locally before 
submitting.
   - [x] Run a successful build using the default 
[Maven](https://maven.apache.org/) goal with `mvn`; that's `mvn` on the command 
line by itself.
   - [x] Write unit tests that match behavioral changes, where the tests fail 
if the changes to the runtime are not applied. This may not always be possible, 
but it is a best practice.
   - [x] Write a pull request description that is detailed enough to understand 
what the pull request does, how, and why.
   - [x] Each commit in the pull request should have a meaningful subject line 
and body. Note that a maintainer may squash commits during the merge process.
