Refactor the core of choosing by weights into a function
This eliminates duplicated code, and lets us test a hairy piece of
functionality.

than it ran through the part of the loop before it had made its
choice. Fix for bug 6538.
+ o Code simplifications and refactoring:
+ - Move the core of our "choose a weighted element at random" logic
+ into its own function, and give it unit tests. Now the logic is
+ testable, and a little less fragile too.
