## Description
This PR wraps the stdlib sync.(RW)Mutex & godeadlock.(RW)Mutex. This enables using go-deadlock via a build flag instead of using sed to replace sync with godeadlock in all files
Closes: #3242
* lint: golint issue fixes
- on my local machine golint is a lot stricter than the bot so slowly going through and fixing things.

- move random function to there own pkg

* Remove deprecated PanicXXX functions from codebase
As per discussion over
[here](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/pull/3456#discussion_r278423492),
we need to remove these `PanicXXX` functions and eliminate our
dependence on them. In this PR, each and every `PanicXXX` function call
is replaced with a simple `panic` call.
* add a changelog entry
Currently the top level directory contains basically all of the code
for the crypto package. This PR moves the crypto code into submodules
in a similar manner to what `golang/x/crypto` does. This improves code
organization.

We were computing these functions incorrectly.
I'm not sure what distribution these numbers are, but it isn't the
normal exponential distribution. (We're making the probability of
getting a number of a particular bitlength equal, but the number in
that bitlength thats gets chosen is uniformly chosen)
We weren't using these functions anywhere in our codebase, and they
had a nomenclature error. (There aren't exponentially distributed
integers, instead they would be geometrically distributed)
The godocs fell out of sync with the code here. Additionally we had
warning that these randomness functions weren't for cryptographic
use on every function. However these warnings are confusing, since
there was no implication that they would be secure there, and a
single warning on the actual Rand type would suffice. (This is what
is done in golang's math/rand godoc)
Additionally we indicated that rand.Bytes() was reading OS randomness
but in fact that had been changed.
Lesson articulated by @jaekwon on why we need 80 bits
of entropy at least before we can think of cryptographic
safety. math/rand's seed is a max of 64 bits so can never
be cryptographically secure.
Also added some benchmarks for RandBytes
Fixes https://github.com/tendermint/tmlibs/issues/99
Updates https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/issues/973
Removed usages of math/rand.DefaultSource in favour of our
own source that's seeded with a completely random source
and is safe for use in concurrent in multiple goroutines.
Also extend some functionality that the stdlib exposes such as
* RandPerm
* RandIntn
* RandInt31
* RandInt63
Also added an integration test whose purpose is to be run as
a consistency check to ensure that our results never repeat
hence that our internal PRNG is uniquely seeded each time.
This integration test can be triggered by setting environment variable:
`TENDERMINT_INTEGRATION_TESTS=true`
for example
```shell
TENDERMINT_INTEGRATION_TESTS=true go test
```
