[jdk17u-dev] RFR: 8294509: The sign extension bug applies to 'public static int[] convertSeedBytesToInts(byte[] seed, int n, int z)' in RandomSupport

[Daniel Huang]

Backport for RandomSupport issue. There is a loss of information when using convertSeedBytesToLongs() with a bad seed, causing a lot of the original bytes to be overwritten by 1s. The fix involves using a bitwise AND with the seed before distributing the seed bytes into the result.

Clean backport, ran GHA sanity checks and locally tested tier1, tier2.
