Produce Reproducible Seeds for Parallel Random Number Generation

make_rng_seeds(count, seed = FALSE, debug = getOption("future.debug", FALSE))

`count`	The number of RNG seeds to produce.
`seed`	A logical specifying whether RNG seeds should be generated or not. (`seed = NULL` corresponds to `seed = FALSE`). If a list, then it should be of length `count` and each element should consist of a valid RNG seed.
`debug`	If `TRUE`, debug output is produced, otherwise not.

Returns a non-named list of length count, or NULL. Any seed returned is a valid RNG seed.
