rollfunction
Throw the dice. The source is crypto unless a seeded one is given. The
third argument is when the roll is made, in epoch milliseconds (now, unless
given), or options: { at, maxDice }. A spec asking for more than ten dice
is brought to ten unless maxDice says otherwise, up to MAX_DICE_BY_CODE.
