8020292: j.u.SplittableRandom

[Peter Levart]

Hi,

The system property name "java.util.secureRandomSeed" suggests that it 
is not for SplittableRandom only. Now that ThreadLocalRandom is 
algorithmically aligned with SplittableRandom, should initial seed for 
TLR instances also use the same algorithm?

Regards, Peter
