// Package uniuri generates random strings good for use in URIs to identify
// unique objects.
//
// Example usage:
//
//	s := uniuri.New() // s is now "apHCJBl7L1OmC57n"
//
// A standard string created by New() is 16 bytes in length and consists of
// Latin upper and lowercase letters, and numbers (from the set of 62 allowed
// characters), which means that it has ~95 bits of entropy. To get more
// entropy, you can use NewLen(UUIDLen), which returns 20-byte string, giving
// ~119 bits of entropy, or any other desired length.
//
// Functions read from crypto/rand random source, and panic if they fail to
// read from it.
