Change the per-process nonce part of the request ID from 8 characters to
10, and wrap the entire thing in a retry loop so you can never get an
"unlucky" panic. I know this will "never" happen in practice, but it
doesn't hurt to make sure we never, ever have any collisions, and never,
ever have any runtime panics.

It's also worth documenting the math ("math") I used to calculate the
numbers here.

I've currently written three:
- Request ID generation
- Request logging, with color (!)
- Recovery from panics
