[libvirt] [PATCH] Generate RFC4122 compliant UUIDs
Even though http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsMetadata
states that it requires RFC4122 compliance UUIDs that are generated
by virUUIDGenerate() are not. Neither does virUUIDIsValid() check
for RFC4122 compliance. Following patch modifies virUUIDGenerate()
to generate valid UUIDs and adds check to virUUIDIsValid() to validate
UUIDs.
