We avoid the modulo operation now, if it comes to small sequences. Instead we discard invalud rolls and require new ones.

In order to keep all entropy we could in case of sequence lengths unequal to powers of the number of dice sides just discard rolls and require further ones, until we get a number in the allowed range. But this could potentially require an endless number of rolls. Instead we implement the following policy: If R=log(<sequence_len>) with <number_of_dice_sides> as basis is >= 1, we require int(R) rolls. We will ignore elements in the sequence with index > int(R). Sample: For 6 dice sides and a sequence of 215 (= 6**3 - 1) elements R would be log_6(215) = 2.9975... but we would pick an element from the range [0..35], i.e. (6**2 - 1). If R is 0, we will require exactly one roll, if <sequence_length> is a divisor of <dice_sides>. In all other cases, <sequence_length> is not a divisor of <dice_sides> and <sequence_length> is shorter than the number of dice_sides. In this case we will roll dice until we get a result in [1..<sequence_length>]. Other rolls will simply be discarded.

Sequences with lenths != s**n (with s:= number of dice sides, n := any natural number) require an extra roll.

The number of rolls is cruical for the whole `choice` distribution and a specialized function is much better testable.

And place the new, integrated fixture on top. We keep it in this module (instead of moving it to conftest.py) because it contains functionality related to randomsources only.

Remove usage of old classmethod and the method itself.

ulif authored
This one is supposed to replace the existing classmethod and should become a regular fixture.

Although the changes since last release are not very severe, it is a difference to "no changes yet". Trusting the latter can make things complicated.
