Get a set of random pages.

Pages are listed in a fixed sequence, only the starting point is random. This means that if, for example, Main Page is the first random page in the list, List of fictional monkeys will always be second, List of people on stamps of Vanuatu third, etc.

If the number of pages in the namespace is lower than $1limit, fewer pages will be returned. The same page will not be returned twice.
