GUID type must be mapped to UUID type in PostgreSQL >= 8.3

Subj. 

uuid type is supported starting from v8.3.

You need to add:
    public override DataTypeCollection GetDataTypesInfo()
    {
        var commonFeatures =
        DataTypeFeatures.Clustering |
        DataTypeFeatures.Grouping |
        DataTypeFeatures.Indexing |
        DataTypeFeatures.KeyConstraint |
        DataTypeFeatures.Nullable |
        DataTypeFeatures.Ordering |
        DataTypeFeatures.Multiple |
        DataTypeFeatures.Default;

        DataTypeCollection dtc =  base.GetDataTypesInfo();
        dtc.Guid = DataTypeInfo.Stream(SqlType.Guid, commonFeatures, 32, "uuid");

        return dtc;
    }
in namespace Xtensive.Sql.PostgreSql.v8_3 in class ServerInfoProvider

and
change the Guid translation from varchar to uuid:

        if (type==typeof(Guid))
          return "uuid";

in method private static string TranslateClrType(Type type) in class Translator

and remove Guid from method public override bool IsParameterCastRequired(Type 
type) in TypeMapper.

I can send patch if you want. I've tested it on 4.2.4 and everything is ok.

There should be no problems when you change it in 4.3 branch;)
