We might want to drop support for 1.4.8.

+1 for dropping 1.4.x
It can also be part of a separate PR if you will. Don't forget to also bump minimal supported version in the .nimble file.

This works by generating a 64-bit number. I am surprised that this works well on a 32-bit architecture.

Why wouldn't it? 32 bit architectures support 64 bit numbers perfectly well, they're just slower (because they take up two memory locations).

Test on i386 (a 32 bit arch) in the CI and update the versions tested.
Closes #48.
The CI job uses the prebuilt binaries from https://nim-lang.org/install.html (since most actions aren't available in a container). This means we can finally confirm that the library works on 32 bit architectures. I had to fix an example and the
randcode (to work around nim-lang/Nim#16360). I also added a test forr.rand(x..x).
