Subject: [PATCH] Seed leg splits per prefix group so like accounts split
 targets alike
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Like accounts in a batch previously carved legs with independent
Math.random, so near-identical day targets could split very differently.
Leg fractions are now drawn from groupLegFraction(prefix, tradeDate,
legIndex) — FNV-1a seeded like dailyBump — so accounts of the same
account type on the same leg of the same day split identically when
their remaining targets match, and proportionally close otherwise.
