    @summary
      Generates a random whole number greater than or equal to 0 and less than MAX, using the value of SEED for repeatable randomness.

    @return
      random number greater than or equal to 0 and less than MAX

    @example **Usage:**
      seeded_rand(MAX, SEED).
      MAX must be a positive integer; SEED is any string.

    Generates a random whole number greater than or equal to 0 and less
    than MAX, using the value of SEED for repeatable randomness.  If SEED
    starts with "$fqdn:", this is behaves the same as `fqdn_rand`.
