/* Generates a new random UUID in 'uuid'.
 *
 * We go to some trouble to ensure as best we can that the generated UUID has
 * these properties:
 *
 *      - Uniqueness.  The random number generator is seeded using both the
 *        system clock and the system random number generator, plus a few
 *        other identifiers, which is about as good as we can get in any kind
 *        of simple way.
 *
 *      - Unpredictability.  In some situations it could be bad for an
 *        adversary to be able to guess the next UUID to be generated with some
 *        probability of success.  This property may or may not be important
 *        for our purposes, but it is better if we can get it.
 *
 * To ensure both of these, we start by taking our seed data and passing it
 * through SHA-1.  We use the result as an AES-128 key.  We also generate a
 * random 16-byte value[*] which we then use as the counter for CTR mode.  To
 * generate a UUID in a manner compliant with the above goals, we merely
 * increment the counter and encrypt it.
 *
 * [*] It is not actually important that the initial value of the counter be
 *     random.  AES-128 in counter mode is secure either way.
