 * @brief Return the default random number generator object of a given type.

 * @tparam TRng The random number generator type to construct.
 *
 * @return TRng Default random number generator of the given type TRng.
 *
 * @section Remarks
 *
 * The random number generator will be default constructed, i.e. with the default seed.
 *
 * This function is NOT thread-safe!  Also, data structures and functions using defaultRng are not thread-safe.  Data
 * structures using global random number generator state should use pointers.  This way, the random number generator
 * state to be used can be set to be thread-local.
