UUID: Quote the output of `show` #88

Some packages (e.g., pretty-simple) expect strings to contain the output of stock-derived show. Using UUIDs with such libraries necessitates wrangling which can be easily avoided.

I've put this in as a major version bump, because it could potentially break downstream code. It may be too controversial to merge.
