/**
 * Fill the given array with a random permutation of integers, in the semi-open
 * [0,n) range, where `n` is the length of the array. Optionally uses provided
 * `rnd` instance.
 *
 * @remarks
 * This function is syntax sugar, combining {@link fillRange} and
 * {@link shuffle}.
 *
 * For typed integer arrays, the length of the array must be compatible with its
 * value range, otherwise duplicates will appear (due to value overflow or
 * clamping). E.g. a `Uint8Array` can only have a max length of 256 items if
 * unique values are required. A `Int8Array` can only have a max length of 128
 * values, otherwise negative numbers will appear in the result.
 *
 * @example
 * ```ts tangle:../export/permutation-uint8.ts
 * import { permutation } from "@thi.ng/arrays";
 *
 * const buf = new Uint8Array(16);
 *
 * // permute entire buffer
 * console.log(permutation(buf));
 * // Uint8Array(16) [ 6, 3, 2, 8, 10, 1, 15, 11, 9, 5, 0, 13, 7, 4, 14, 12 ]
 *
 * // apply to only a sub-ranges of the buffer
 * for (let i = 0; i < buf.length; i += 4) {
 * 	console.log(permutation(buf.subarray(i, i + 4)));
 * }
 * // Uint8Array(4) [ 1, 3, 2, 0 ]
 * // Uint8Array(4) [ 2, 0, 3, 1 ]
 * // Uint8Array(4) [ 1, 3, 2, 0 ]
 * // Uint8Array(4) [ 3, 2, 1, 0 ]
 *
 * // show full buffer
 * console.log(buf);
 * // Uint8Array(16) [ 1, 3, 2, 0, 2, 0, 3, 1, 1, 3, 2, 0, 3, 2, 1, 0 ]
