timer: add new feature FixedRandomDelay=
FixedRandomDelay=yes will use `siphash24(sd_id128_get_machine() || MANAGER_IS_SYSTEM(m) || getuid() || u->id)`, where || is concatenation, instead of a random number to choose a value between 0 and RandomizedDelaySec= as the timer delay. This essentially sets up a fixed, but seemingly random, offset for each timer iteration rather than having a random offset recalculated each time it fires. Closes #10355 Co-author: Anita Zhang <the.anitazha@gmail.com>
