bitwise_copy() is generally useful so make it a general utility function.
Also add a comment.
Upcoming commits will introduce users for the new functions.

If a daemon doesn't start, we need to know why. Being able to
consistently consult the log to find out is helpful.

This test would have made the bug fixed in the previous commit obvious. It
would have printed the following:

As written, this "32-bit" random number generator nevers returns a value
bigger than 0xfffe0. This fixes the problem.

Even though this PRNG is not meant to be cryptographically secure, there is
no reason not to get a high-quality seed.

Until now this library has based its random number upon those returned
by libc's rand() function. This has always bugged me--it is not a good
solution since rand() varies in quality so much. This commit changes
the random library to use a simple but high-quality PRNG.
