ovsdb-idl: Add the support to specify the uuid for row insert.

ovsdb-server allows the OVSDB clients to specify the uuid for
the row inserts [1].  Both the C IDL client library and Python
IDL are missing this feature.  This patch adds this support.

In C IDL, for each schema table, a new function is generated -
<schema_table>insert_persistent_uuid(txn, uuid) which can
be used the clients to persist the uuid.

ovs-vsctl and other derivatives of ctl now supports the same
in the generic 'create' command with the option "--id=<UUID>".

In Python IDL, the uuid to persist can be specified in
the Transaction.insert() function.
