Bug #7935: Array#sample with random generator

The Random generator method's rand is called with the wrong limit.

Kernel::rand(n) returns integer between 0 and n-1, but generator is called with (n-1).

For example:

  require 'delegate'
  [1, 2].sample(1, random: Random.new) # => [1], or [2]
  [1, 2].sample(1, random: SimpleDelegator.new(Random.new)) # => [1], never [2]
