improve performances by not shuffling vectors

in ./bins/inbreeding/, this MR does

• refactor the "list item drawing" from environment.rs and strategy.rs into the draw_unique_elements function of new random.rs module
• use a HashSet to draw unique indices in the slice of "things" to draw from and then extracts the items corresponding to these indices

the improvement is quite nice, even though not huge, but the code is cleaner anyways 🙏
