Right now, the API expects the user to pass a random seed and internally every implementation/solver instantiates its own
AbstractRNG object.
For instance, the SimulatedAnnealing implementation has the following code
if isnothing(seed)
rng = Xorshifts.Xorshift1024Star()
else
rng = Xorshifts.Xorshift1024Star(seed)
end
and the PSO implementation has the exact same piece of code.
This, of course, is very bad practice. Instead, we should expect the user to pass their own AbstractRNG object which will give them the freedom to choose whichever RNG implementation the choose.
