short strings can be used in type parameter of gpt command
to replace the guid string for the types known by u-boot
partitions = name=boot,size=0x6bc00,type=data; \
name=root,size=0x7538ba00,type=linux;
gpt write mmc 0 $partitions
and they are also used to display the type of partition
in "part list" command
Partition Map for MMC device 0 -- Partition Type: EFI
Part Start LBA End LBA Name

This patch adds support to generate UUID (Universally Unique Identifier)
in version 4 based on RFC4122, which is randomly.
Source: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4122.txt
Changes:
- new configs:
- CONFIG_LIB_UUID for compile lib/uuid.c
- CONFIG_RANDOM_UUID for functions gen_rand_uuid() and gen_rand_uuid_str()
- add configs dependency to include/config_fallbacks.h for lib uuid.
lib/uuid.c:
- add gen_rand_uuid() - this function writes 16 bytes len binary representation
of UUID v4 to the memory at given address.
- add gen_rand_uuid_str() - this function writes 37 bytes len hexadecimal
ASCII string representation of UUID v4 to the memory at given address.

[trini: Add CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION to fallbacks]
Signed-off-by: Tom Rini <trini@ti.com>
Changes in lib/uuid.c to:
- uuid_str_to_bin()
- uuid_bin_to_str()
New parameter is added to specify input/output string format in listed functions
This change allows easy recognize which UUID type is or should be stored in given
string array. Binary data of UUID and GUID is always stored in big endian, only
string representations are different as follows.
String byte: 0 36
String char: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
string UUID: be be be be be
string GUID: le le le be be
This patch also updates functions calls and declarations in a whole code.
