This PR lets you use the v6, v7, and v8 variants without also having to set the UUID_UNSTABLE environment variable. It means it's now feasible for libraries to use these formats, and for applications to simplify their builds.
I've added a benchmark for v4 vs v7 that users can run if they're interested in the potential impact of switching from fully random to sortable UUIDs.
Closes #523
