Rules lgpl javascript crypto rule node insecure random generator

This rule identifies use of cryptographically weak random number generators.
Using cryptographically weak random number generators like crypto.pseudoRandomBytes()
and Math.random() for security-critical tasks can expose systems to significant
vulnerabilities. Attackers might predict the generated random numbers, compromising
the integrity and confidentiality of cryptographic operations. This could lead to
breaches where sensitive data is accessed or manipulated, authentication mechanisms
are bypassed, or secure communications are intercepted, ultimately undermining the
security of the entire system or application.

Mitigation strategy:
Replace the use of these cryptographically weak random number generators with
crypto.randomBytes(), a method provided by Node.js's crypto module that
generates cryptographically secure random numbers. This method should be used
for all operations requiring secure randomness, such as generating keys, tokens,
or any cryptographic material.

Secure Code Example:

const crypto = require('crypto');
const secureBytes = crypto.randomBytes(256);
console.log(`Secure random bytes: ${secureBytes.toString('hex')}`);

Why the then()/catch() syntax vs async/await

- Replaced processedRecordIds Set with processedRecordCount counter
- Prevents unbounded memory growth when processing millions of records
- Maintains same functionality for progress tracking without storing IDs
- Added comments explaining the memory optimization
- Replaced copied record-hook documentation with stream-specific content
- Added comprehensive Item API reference
- Documented streaming benefits and performance optimizations
- Added examples showing proper usage of Item methods (err, warn, info)
- Included guidance on when to use streaming vs standard hooks
- Documented includeMessages and includeMetadata options
