Simplify session ID generation

There was too much voodoo going on in new_sid(). Just use uniqid() with
a random seed and the optional entropy parameter to generate MD5 input.

Use the remote IP address as a salt to reduce the chance of two clients
getting the same ID if they login at exactly the same time.
