Backport of #16076.
When the input to Generator.integers was 232, the value 232-1
was being passed as the rng argument to the 32-bit Lemire method,
but that method requires rng be strictly less then 2**32-1.
The fix was to handle 2**32-1 by calling next_uint32 directly.
This also works for the legacy code without changing the stream
of random integers from randint.
Closes gh-16066.
