Vladimír Čunát 1878ac9335 tree-wide: various cleanups
It's mainly refactoring and mass-rebuild simplifications without any
real impact (besides better readability).

OSSP uuid is a ISO-C:1999 application programming interface
(API) and corresponding command line interface (CLI) for the
generation of DCE 1.1, ISO/IEC 11578:1996 and RFC 4122
compliant Universally Unique Identifier (UUID). It supports
DCE 1.1 variant UUIDs of version 1 (time and node based),
version 3 (name based, MD5), version 4 (random number based)
and version 5 (name based, SHA-1). Additional API bindings are
provided for the languages ISO-C++:1998, Perl:5 and
PHP:4/5. Optional backward compatibility exists for the ISO-C
DCE-1.1 and Perl Data::UUID APIs.
UUIDs are 128 bit numbers which are intended to have a high
likelihood of uniqueness over space and time and are
computationally difficult to guess. They are globally unique
identifiers which can be locally generated without contacting
a global registration authority. UUIDs are intended as unique
identifiers for both mass tagging objects with an extremely
short lifetime and to reliably identifying very persistent
objects across a network.
