This function is documented to return a value in the range (0,1),
which is what its predecessor anl_random_fract() did.  However, the
new version depends on pg_erand48() which returns a value in [0,1).
The possibility of returning zero creates hazards of division by zero
or trying to compute log(0) at some call sites, and it might well
break third-party modules using anl_random_fract() too.  So let's
change it to never return zero.  Spotted by Coverity.
