//! Random data on Apple platforms.
//!
//! `CCRandomGenerateBytes` calls into `CCRandomCopyBytes` with `kCCRandomDefault`.
//! `CCRandomCopyBytes` manages a CSPRNG which is seeded from the kernel's CSPRNG.
//! We use `CCRandomGenerateBytes` instead of `SecCopyBytes` because it is accessible via
//! `libSystem` (libc) while the other needs to link to `Security.framework`.
//!
//! Note that technically, `arc4random_buf` is available as well, but that calls
//! into the same system service anyway, and `CCRandomGenerateBytes` has been
//! proven to be App Store-compatible.
