If there are not keys_limit keys behind first_key this will "break". We should instead just load all the keys and then do sample_iter.

This can then directly replace the shuffle call below.

sample_iter seems to create new values (IIUC). What if we use choose_multiple here?

		let mut keys: Vec<_> = client.storage_keys(hash, None, None)?.collect();
		let (mut rng, _) = new_rng(self.params.random_seed);
		keys = keys.choose_multiple(&mut rng, self.params.keys_limit.unwrap_or(keys.len())).cloned().collect();

Yeah you can also use choose_multiple.

Thanks @bkchr, after discussing with the team loading all keys is exactly what breaks (OOM) the workflow for our huge storage chains.
But we get your first_key concern...let me try a different approach here and will ping you back.

@bkchr just pushed a new approach to get more keys when it is necessary.
LMK what do you think about it.

@arturgontijo I'm fine with the approach, but can we get this into some shared function? :D

It can probably take two lambdas to abstract the different ways to read the entries.

Add a shared function in 6ed88c4
I tried to simplify it even more but the complexity (mostly trait bounds) was getting too high.
