[issue21394] Lib/random.py: use more efficient code to convert bytes to integer

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor:

In Lib/random.py, I see lines like that:

   long(_hexlify(_urandom(32)), 16)

I guess that something more efficient can be fonud to convert a bytes string to an integer.

bytes.from_bytes() maybe?
