[TEXT-34] Add class to generate random strings (original) (raw)

Type: New Feature
Status: Closed
Priority: Major
Resolution: Implemented
Affects Version/s: None
Fix Version/s: 1.0

The RandomStringUtils class will be deprecated in Commons Lang and reborn in Commons Text.

Because the original class has some complicated parameters and potentially unnecessary capabilities, I'll simplify as I move it across. I'll also ensure the class plays nicely with Unicode characters.
