Detailed Description

Provides functions for generating and validating UUIDs (Universally Unique Identifier).

This header defines functions for generating random UUIDs, creating nil UUIDs, and validating whether a given string is a valid UUID. It utilizes the Boost UUID library for generating and manipulating UUIDs. The functions return UUIDs as strings and support both dashed and non-dashed formats. The implementation ensures that UUIDs conform to the standard format and can be used for unique identification purposes in various applications.
