lib/uuid.c: introduce a few more generic helpers

There are new helpers in this patch:

  uuid_is_valid		checks if a UUID is valid
  uuid_be_to_bin	converts from string to binary (big endian)
  uuid_le_to_bin	converts from string to binary (little endian)

They will be used in future, i.e. in the following patches in the series.

This also moves the indices arrays to lib/uuid.c to be shared accross
modules.
