Dean Rasheed 6b258e3d68 pgbench: Function to generate random permutations. ... This adds a new function, permute(), that generates pseudorandom permutations of arbitrary sizes. This can be used to randomly shuffle a set of values to remove unwanted correlations. For example, permuting the output from a non-uniform random distribution so that all the most common values aren't collocated, allowing more realistic tests to be performed. Formerly, hash() was recommended for this purpose, but that suffers from collisions that might alter the distribution, so recommend permute() for this purpose instead.
