Adds the random twos choice load-balancing algorithm. The algorithm will
pick two random servers based on weights. Then select the server with
the least amount of connections normalized by weight. The algorithm
avoids the "herd behavior" problem. The algorithm comes from a paper
by Michael Mitzenmacher available here

Changes in v2:
- Added references
- Fixed uninitialized value
- Fixed grammar mistake in Kconfig description
- Fixed not needing to initialize weight
- Fixed long indentation. I broke the suggested change into two
continues to avoid the atomic_read call when not needed
