tokens, suitable for applications such as password resets,
hard-to-guess URLs, and similar.

.. data:: DEFAULT_ENTROPY

The default number of bytes of randomness used by the ``token_*``
functions when *nbytes* is not specified. This is an opaque value
that may change at any time, including during maintenance releases.
Users who need a specific amount of entropy should explicitly pass
the *nbytes* argument.

.. function:: token_bytes([nbytes=None])

Return a random byte string containing *nbytes* number of bytes.
