Pull request description:

  This is mostly a style-cleanup for the tests' random generation:

  1) `g_insecure_rand_ctx` in the tests is problematic, because the name is a leftover when the generator was indeed insecure. However, now the generator is *deterministic*, because the seed is either passed in or printed (c.f. RANDOM_CTX_SEED). Stating that deterministic randomness is insecure in the tests seems redundant at best. Fix it by just using `m_rng` for the name.

  2) The global random context has many one-line aliases, such as `InsecureRand32`. This is problematic, because the same line of code may use the context directly and through a wrapper at the same time. For example in net_tests (see below). This inconsistency is harmless, but confusing. Fix it by just removing the one-line aliases.

  ```
  src/test/net_tests.cpp:        auto msg_data_1 = g_insecure_rand_ctx.randbytes<uint8_t>(InsecureRandRange(100000));
  ````

  3) The wrapper for randmoney has the same problem that the same unit test uses the context directly and through a wrapper at the same time. Also, it has a single type of Rng hardcoded. Fix it by accepting any type.
