When using the OSSP UUID library, cache its uuid_t state object.

Browse Source 
The original coding in contrib/uuid-ossp created and destroyed a uuid_t
object (or, in some cases, even two of them) each time it was called.
This is not the intended usage: you're supposed to keep the uuid_t object
around so that the library can cache its state across uses.  (Other UUID
libraries seem to keep equivalent state behind-the-scenes in static
variables, but OSSP chose differently.)  Aside from being quite inefficient,
creating a new uuid_t loses knowledge of the previously generated UUID,
which in theory could result in duplicate V1-style UUIDs being created
on sufficiently fast machines.

On at least some platforms, creating a new uuid_t also draws some entropy
from /dev/urandom, leaving less for the rest of the system.  This seems
sufficiently unpleasant to justify back-patching this change.

/*
* We create a uuid_t object just once per session and re-use it for all
* operations in this module. OSSP UUID caches the system MAC address and
* other state in this object. Reusing the object has a number of benefits:
* saving the cycles needed to fetch the system MAC address over and over,
* reducing the amount of entropy we draw from /dev/urandom, and providing a
* positive guarantee that successive generated V1-style UUIDs don't collide.
* (On a machine fast enough to generate multiple UUIDs per microsecond,
* or whatever the system's wall-clock resolution is, we'd otherwise risk
* collisions whenever random initialization of the uuid_t's clock sequence
* value chanced to produce duplicates.)
*
* However: when we're doing V3 or V5 UUID creation, uuid_make needs two
* uuid_t objects, one holding the namespace UUID and one for the result.
* It's unspecified whether it's safe to use the same uuid_t for both cases,
* so let's cache a second uuid_t for use as the namespace holder object.
