When writing some tests, I mistakenly attempted to auto-generate a UUID, which caused a segfault: virRandom was being used without calling virRandomInitialize. Make sure this case can't happen.

I don't much like this as an approach - it would be nicer to put it into the tests/testutil.c file where we already call the virThreadInitialize & virErrorInitialize functions

I've sent a new patch to address this. Thanks, Cole
