// Generates globally unique ids with lower probability of any collisions
// vs. each unique id being independently random (GenerateRawUniqueId).
// We call this "semi-structured" because between different
// SemiStructuredUniqueIdGen objects, the IDs are separated by random
// intervals (unstructured), but within a single SemiStructuredUniqueIdGen
// object, the generated IDs are trivially related (structured). See
// https://github.com/pdillinger/unique_id for how this improves probability
// of no collision. In short, if we have n SemiStructuredUniqueIdGen
// objects each generating m IDs, the first collision is expected at
// around n = sqrt(2^128 / m), equivalently n * sqrt(m) = 2^64,
// rather than n * m = 2^64 for fully random IDs.
