Description

#### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This is a feature request received in 2743451-zen.

#### Describe the solution you'd like
Currently, the Slideshow block allows us to choose the images in the order that we'd like the images to appear on the slideshow and we can reorder the images. It's a nice-to-have feature if we could have an option to randomized the images.

#### Describe alternatives you've considered
None.

#### Additional context
None.

Research direction

Start by locating the Slideshow block implementation and the existing image ordering controls in the repository. Trace how the selected image order is stored and rendered, then verify that an added random-order option produces a randomized slideshow while preserving the current manual ordering behavior.
