[issue40286] Add getrandbytes() method to random.Random

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettinger at gmail.com> added the comment:

If we have to have this, the method name should be differentiated from getrandbits() because the latter returns an integer.  I suggest just random.bytes(n), the same as numpy.

> Python already has three functions to generate random bytes:

Now, there will be four ;-)
