Add xkcd#221 RNG #6

As suggested in https://github.com/giordano/RandomBasedArrays.jl/issues/4, it'd be useful to implement the standard IEEE-vetted random number generator whose specification is described in xkcd#221. I think it fits very well in this package, it seems very stable. It should also be rather simple to implement.

That's an excellent idea! the specification is very clear and unlikely to change. This is a nice project for anyone interested in contributing, which I'm happy to help with.
