[3.2.0] Illegal invocation at whatwgRNG

See original GitHub issue

Just installed the newest version 3.2.0 and I get this error in Chrome:

Uncaught TypeError: Illegal invocation
    at whatwgRNG (rng-browser.js:13)
    at v4 (v4.js:13)

Just messed around a bit and it looks like you can not assign the method getRandomValue from crypto or msCrypto to a variable (yeah…ugh, I guess it has to do with browser security).

if you go with

var myCrypto = crypto || msCrypto;

if (typeof myCrypto !== 'undefined') {
  var rnds8 = new Uint8Array(16); // eslint-disable-line no-undef
  module.exports = function whatwgRNG() {
    myCrypto.getRandomValues(rnds8);
    return rnds8;
  }
}

it should work.

Guys, you broke lib near our release. Happily we catch it before something bad happens. Stick to 3.1.0 now.
