pgbench: introduce a RandomState struct

This becomes useful when used to retry a transaction after a
serialization error or deadlock abort.  (We don't yet have that feature,
but this is preparation for it.)

While at it, use separate random state for thread administratrivia such
as deciding which script to run, how long to delay for throttling, or
whether to log a message when sampling; this not only makes these tasks
independent of each other, but makes the actual thread run
deterministic.
