Views random seed settings

Adds a random order handler with seed. If a constant integer argument N is specified in the sql RAND() function, it is used as the seed value, which produces a repeatable sequence of column values. This makes it possible to have paging and not having items show up twice.

More info:

- PostgreSQL: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/functions-math.html about RANDOM() and the 'select setseed' function.
