## Description
Both slashing and distribution simulator is using ugly casting from the nice interface type to:
```go
stakeKeeper := sk.(*stakingkeeper.Keeper)
```
This creates additional dependency for `staking/keeper` package in other modules, and requires type of a specific type (here reference type, in 0.46 it's even worse - because it uses object type).
EXTRA:
* removed `stakingkeepr.RandomValidator` function (which btw, was also weird, because it was in the keeper module and required Keeper as an argument) and created generic `testutil.RandSliceElem` function.
