[issue29085] Python 3.6 on Windows doesn't seed Random() well enough

Kyle Altendorf added the comment:

time.sleep(0) and time.sleep(0.0) acted the same for me and both exhibited matching 'random' values in some cases.  (win10, python3.6)  I also printed time.time() with each 'random' value and it wasn't a perfect match but matching times tended to go with matching 'random' values.
