Document dependency between streams in PCG #195

Closed

Description

@vigna

PCG streams obtained by modifying the increment constant are not independent. The topic has been discussed at length for the Rust implementation:

rust-random/rand#907

This should be something the user is made aware of, as having a parameter and talking about "streams" in the documentation gives the idea that the streams are somehow independent.
