Greetings. I thought I could contribute to glibc more :). isqrt is  |_ squareRoot(x) _|  function
implemented with pure integer arithmetic in x86 Assembly (64-bit input, 32-bit output). svRnd is a
RNG that uses rdtsc opcode. Both have x86-64 versions as well as test suites. I would greatly
appreciate any comments and suggestions.
Thanks.

note: svRnd is the same with the previous one I sent except a tiny check for being %100 error-proof
