Refactor RandomSalt to handle salts of different lengths.

All we need is 4 bytes at the moment, for MD5 authentication. But in
upcomint patches for SCRAM authentication, SCRAM will need a salt of
different length. It's less scary for the caller to pass the buffer
length anyway, than assume a certain-sized output buffer.
