/**
* CWE-407 simulation: VLC randomizer_Remove O(N×C) linear scan.
*
* Simulates the defect in src/playlist/randomizer.c where
* randomizer_Remove() calls randomizer_RemoveOne() for each item,
* which calls randomizer_IndexOf() → vlc_vector_index_of() — a
* linear scan of the vector. Total: O(N×C), where N = playlist size
* and C = items to remove. When C ≈ N this is O(N²).
*
* Fix: use a HashSet for O(1) lookup → O(N+C) total.
