Picks a random cell whose glyph matches: random tries first, then a sweep, so a map with any such cell always yields one; <code>(-1, -1)</code> when none exists. Deterministic, from the seeded RNG.

```ludic
# doc-check: skip — illustrative
let tile = Map.random_cell(glyph: '.')
Spawn.enemy(kind, IVec2.scale(tile, 16))
```
