feat(xanthous): Add a generator for random english syllables r/2656

Add a new "speech" generator module, with the beginnings of the vague
definition of the phonotactics of the language (there's one in here for
English based on the wikipedia article for English phonology, but it's
less than ideal as it has generated words like "sprurlkt") and the
ability to generate random syllables of a language by picking an onset,
nucleus, and coda from the list for that language (within a range of the
number of allowed of each syllable part). This will be used down the
road to automatically generate utterances from various
non-english-speaking creatures (so the accuracy is less important, just
that it "feels real").
