  `undef` or a string. SEED is optional and may be any number or string.

  Generates a random string LENGTH characters long using the character set
  provided by CHARSET, combining the `$fqdn` fact and the value of SEED for
  repeatable randomness. (That is, each node will get a different random
  string from this function, but a given node's result will be the same every
  time unless its hostname changes.) Adding a SEED can be useful if you need
  more than one unrelated string. CHARSET will default to alphanumeric if
  `undef` or an empty string.") do |args|
