Update RNG seeding

Michael Duehrssen-Debling requested to merge mduehrss/athena:UpdateRNGseeding into master

Update of the RNG seeding in master together with a test that calcualtes how often seeds are re-used. The current standard seeding leads to the same seed being used by the random number generator in up to 0.3% of cases, see ATLASSIM-5338. The new seeding method leads to a substantilly reduced rate of producing the same seeds.
