Zig UUIDv4 Library

A small, self-contained Zig library that generates RFC 4122 Version 4 (random) UUIDs quickly and without allocations. It provides:

• Zero-allocation UUID generation.
• Simple parsing and formatting functions (to and from string).
• Straightforward integration into your Zig projects.

This library is designed to be as minimal and featureless as possible, providing only what you need for UUIDv4 generation according to RFC 4122.

Features

• Version 4 UUID Generation: Uses std.crypto.random to reliably produce random UUIDs.
• No Allocations: The library does not allocate. It uses fixed-size buffers to store and manipulate UUIDs.
• Parsing & Formatting: Convert a UUID to its canonical string form (e.g. xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx) or parse such a string back into a UUID.
