92f7ba208c random(6): Fix off-by-one
After r355693, random(6) -f sometimes fail to output all the lines of the
input file.  This is because the range from which random indices are chosen
is too big, so occasionally the random selection doesn't correspond to any
line and nothing gets printed.

(Ed. note: Mea culpa.  Working on r355693, I was confused by the sometime
use of 1-indexing, sometimes 0-indexing in randomize_fd().)

c7b8411cc9 random(6): produce random results
This program is trash and there's no reason to keep it in base.  But as long as
we're shipping a silly program named 'random', let's actually make it random.

290dadbd56 Fix a (false positive?) Argument cannot be negative coverity defect.
Rather than guarding close(fd) with an fd >= 0 test and setting fd
to -1 when it is closed to avoid a potential double-close, just
move the close() call after the conditional "goto make_token".  This
moves the close() call totally outside the loop to avoid the
possibility of calling it twice.  This should also prevent a Coverity
warning about checking fd for validity after it was previously passed
to read().

7bfdbca596 random(6): Fix double-close
In the case where a file lacks a trailing newline, there is some "evil" code to
reverse goto the tokenizing code ("make_token") for the final token in the
file.  In this case, 'fd' is closed more than once.  Use a negative sentinel
value to guard close(2), preventing the double close.

Ideally, this code would be restructured to avoid this ugly construction.

6ae1554a5d Final step of eliminating the "games" distribution: Merge src/games
(or what's left of it, at least) into src/usr.bin.

This change will not be MFCed.
