Hi,

Now that the hash seed functionality, which utilized ThreadLocalRandom, has
been removed from Hashtable and WeakHashMap we can update TLR to use the same
seed initialization functionality as SplittableRandom, which includes using
SecureRandom if the system property "java.util.secureRandomSeed" is set to true.
Thanks. This just re-instates a change we had to hold off on
in last TLR updates because of the hash seed dependency.
Looks okay to me although it might be better to catch UHE rather than Exception.
The intent is to ignore any problem in getting hashed host name
short of a VM error. On the other hand, it is not nice to consume
any unexpected mysterious RunTimeException. A coin flip...
