Allow bisecting the place where the seed affects program behaviour negatively #1637

Description

@oli-obk

#1635 made me wonder if we could do something similar to optimization fuel, but for the randomness. Basically if you have one seed that makes your program work and one that doesn't, we give you a fuel parameter that allows you to set the index at which the random number generators get switched, so you can basically bisect to the point at which randomness affects your program in problematic ways (including a backtrace at that switch site)
