0000ea32656833efa3d2ffd9bab66c88c83334f0 test: Add test for GetRandMillis and GetRandMicros (MarcoFalke)
fa0e5b89cf742df56c6c8f49fe9b3c54d2970a66 Add templated GetRandomDuration<> (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
A naive implementation of this template is dangerous, because the call site might accidentally omit the template parameter:
```cpp
template <typename D>
D GetRandDur(const D& duration_max)
{
return D{GetRand(duration_max.count())};
}
BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(util_time_GetRandTime)
{
std::chrono::seconds rand_hour = GetRandDur(std::chrono::hours{1});
// Want seconds to be in range [0..1hour), but always get zero :((((
BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(rand_hour.count(), 0);
}
```
Luckily `std::common_type` is already specialised in the standard lib for `std::chrono::duration` (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/chrono/duration/common_type). And its effect seem to be that the call site must always specify the template argument explicitly.
So instead of implementing the function for each duration type by hand, replace it with a templated version that is safe to use.

What is Dash?
Dash is an experimental digital currency that enables instant, private payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Dash uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Dash Core is the name of the open source software which enables the use of this currency.
For more information read the original Dash whitepaper.
License
Dash Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
Development Process
The master branch is meant to be stable. Development is normally done in separate branches.
Tags are created to indicate new official,
stable release versions of Dash Core.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.
Testing
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Automated Testing
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to
submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running
and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.
There are also regression and integration tests, written
in Python.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py
The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.
Translations
Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Dash Core's Transifex page.
Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.
Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
