 * A $(LINK2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier, UUID), or
 * $(LINK2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier, Universally unique identifier),
 * is intended to uniquely identify information in a distributed environment
 * without significant central coordination. It can be
 * used to tag objects with very short lifetimes, or to reliably identify very
 * persistent objects across a network.
 *
 * UUIDs have many applications. Some examples follow: Databases may use UUIDs to identify
 * rows or records in order to ensure that they are unique across different
 * databases, or for publication/subscription services. Network messages may be
 * identified with a UUID to ensure that different parts of a message are put back together
 * again. Distributed computing may use UUIDs to identify a remote procedure call.
 * Transactions and classes involved in serialization may be identified by UUIDs.
 * Microsoft's component object model (COM) uses UUIDs to distinguish different software
 * component interfaces. UUIDs are inserted into documents from Microsoft Office programs.
 * UUIDs identify audio or video streams in the Advanced Systems Format (ASF). UUIDs are
 * also a basis for OIDs (object identifiers), and URNs (uniform resource name).
 *
 * An attractive feature of UUIDs when compared to alternatives is their relative small size,
 * of 128 bits, or 16 bytes. Another is that the creation of UUIDs does not require
 * a centralized authority.
 *
 * When UUIDs are generated by one of the defined mechanisms, they are either guaranteed
 * to be unique, different from all other generated UUIDs (that is, it has never been
 * generated before and it will never be generated again), or it is extremely likely
 * to be unique (depending on the mechanism).
 *
 * For efficiency, UUID is implemented as a struct. UUIDs are therefore empty if not explicitly
 * initialized. An UUID is empty if $(MYREF3 UUID.empty, empty) is true. Empty UUIDs are equal to
 * $(D UUID.init), which is a UUID with all 16 bytes set to 0.
 * Use UUID's constructors or the UUID generator functions to get an initialized UUID.
 *
 * This is a port of $(LINK2 http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_42_0/libs/uuid/uuid.html,
 * boost._uuid) from the Boost project with some minor additions and API
 * changes for a more D-like API.
 *
 * Examples:
 * ------------------------
 * UUID[] ids;
 * ids ~= randomUUID();
 * ids ~= md5UUID("test.name.123");
 * ids ~= sha1UUID("test.name.123");
 *
 * foreach(entry; ids)
 * {
 *     assert(entry.variant == UUID.Variant.rfc4122);
 * }
 *
 * assert(ids[0].uuidVersion == UUID.Version.randomNumberBased);
 * assert(ids[1].toString() == "22390768-cced-325f-8f0f-cfeaa19d0ccd");
 * assert(ids[1].data == [34, 57, 7, 104, 204, 237, 50, 95, 143, 15, 207,
 *     234, 161, 157, 12, 205]);
 *
 * UUID id;
 * assert(id.empty);
