 * Generate a random string, using a cryptographically secure 
 * pseudorandom number generator (random_int)
 *
 * This function uses type hints now (PHP 7+ only), but it was originally
 * written for PHP 5 as well.
 * 
 * For PHP 7, random_int is a PHP core function
 * For PHP 5.x, depends on https://github.com/paragonie/random_compat
 * 
 * @param int $length      How many characters do we want?
 * @param string $keyspace A string of all possible characters
 *                         to select from
 * @return string
