v0.3.1: New password length behaviour

Browse source 
To address issue #13, the password length behaviour of the
original APG has been reproduced. Previously, when a minLength
of 5 and a maxLength of 10 was given, apg-go se the pwLength to
the preferred maxLength.

With v0.3.1 it will choose a random length between minLength and
maxLength instead, same as the original C-lang apg did. For this
the minLength has been defaulted to a sane value of 12 (instead
of the 8 of the original apg). The default for maxLength stayed
at 20.

Also the default number of generated passwords has been changed
from 1 to 6, to replicate the behaviour of the original apg.
