I have dim and hazy memories of us discussing adding a zsig randomizer to core
BarnOwl on zephyr at some point, possibly in the context of pulling kchen's 
owl-related scripts into core.  Regardless, it's a commonly-desired 
functionality that I think fits with BarnOwl's mission and makes sense to ship 
by default, rather than requiring people to pull in a plugin or a separate 
program to provide.

There follows a patch which provides a function, 
BarnOwl::random_zephyr_signature, for use with the 'zsigfunc' variable, which 
does exactly what its name suggests.
