	This function takes a MusicBrainz ID (an absolute URI) as the input
	and returns the UUID part of the URI, thus turning it into a relative
	URI. If C{uriStr} is None or a relative URI, then it is returned
	unchanged.

	The C{resType} parameter can be used for error checking. Set it to
	'artist', 'release', or 'track' to make sure C{uriStr} is a
	syntactically valid MusicBrainz identifier of the given resource
	type. If it isn't, a C{ValueError} exception is raised.
	This error checking only works if C{uriStr} is an absolute URI, of
	course.

	>>> from musicbrainz2.utils import extractUuid
	>>>  extractUuid('http://musicbrainz.org/artist/c0b2500e-0cef-4130-869d-732b23ed9df5', 'artist')
