It would be nice if Python/random.c were renamed to something else that
indicated its relation to urandom and to hash secrets.

Right, based on Victor & Serhiy's feedback, the split I would now propose
 is:

- Include/pyurandom.h and Python/pyurandom.c for the OS urandom APIs (with
related init/fini functions)
- Python/hash_randomization.c for the hash seeding functions  (while this
process *uses* pyurandom, it isn't part of *providing* that interface)
