Now that we have get_random_u32_below(), it's nearly trivial to make inline helpers to compute get_random_u32_above() and get_random_u32_inclusive(), which will help clean up open coded loops and manual computations throughout the tree. One snag is that in order to make get_random_u32_inclusive() operate on closed intervals, we have to do some (unlikely) special case handling if get_random_u32_inclusive(0, U32_MAX) is called. The least expensive way of doing this is actually to adjust the slowpath of get_random_u32_below() to have its undefined 0 result just return the output of get_random_u32(). We can make this basically free by calling get_random_u32() before the branch, so that the branch latency gets interleaved.
