Subject: Purchaser::generate_secret(): Use a larger random number pool

The `random()` function I was using will sample a value from "the full
representable range"
(https://docs.rs/rand/0.5.5/rand/#the-two-step-process-to-get-a-random-value).

We should really be using longer numbers, so set the sample range to
integers above and including 1 billion.
