[SPECRand] Uninitialized Induction Variable in spec_rand.cpp

[AlexandreSinger]

In the GCC13 build of VTR, we are getting the following warning from spec_rand.cpp:

This code can be found in VTR here: https://github.com/verilog-to-routing/vtr-verilog-to-routing/blob/ec23fea1f56d52a0dcd94787f3ee81517636671c/libs/libvtrutil/src/specrand.cpp#L122-L125

Leaving the induction variable uninitialized is undefined behavior, I believe; however, the compiler is likely initializing it to zero for us. The fix for this is to simply update it to size_t kk = 0 in the preamble of the for loop; however, since this file is from outside of the VTR repo I am not sure if we can change this file.

@heshpdx Are we able to modify this file on the VTR side with this fix? Or does the change need to be done elsewhere first?

[heshpdx]

Feel free to edit. This is already fixed in my tree. Sorry for not sharing!

[heshpdx]

I dug up these edits I made to fix other warnings. Sharing in case it helps you.

Thank you so much Mahesh! I have updated spec_rand.cpp file and I went through all of your changes above and ensured that upstream has these changes as well!
