Research direction
Start in R/copykat.R at the linked lines 30–33 and trace how copyKAT handles its random seed. Confirm where the option is accepted and used, then make completion mean that callers can provide a seed while reproducibility remains possible and different starting conditions can be explored.

Description
I am filing this issue to request an option to set the random seed directly when using copyKAT. I see that the seed is strictly set to 1234 here:
https://github.com/navinlabcode/copykat/blob/d7d6569ae9e30bf774908301af312f626de4cbd5/R/copykat.R#L30-L33
Is it possible for this to be updated such that users can pass in a seed directly to be able to both ensure reproducibility while also being able to explore robustness to starting conditions? Thank you!
