pickRandom mixin for underscore
// underscore-pickrandom.js
// (c) 2012 Simon Kågedal Reimer
// This file is freely distributable under the MIT license.
// _.pickRandom - a mixin for underscore.js.
//
// Pick random elements from an array. Works similar to
// `_.first(_.shuffle(array, n))`, but is more efficient -- operates
// in time proportional to `n` rather than the length of the whole
// array.
