Add randomness pool mode for V4 UUID (#80)
* Add randomness pool mode for V4 UUID

Adds an optional randomness pool mode for Random (Version 4)
UUID generation. The pool contains random bytes read from
the random number generator on demand in batches. Enabling
the pool may improve the UUID generation throughput
significantly.

Since the pool is stored on the Go heap, this feature may
be a bad fit for security sensitive applications. That's
why it's implemented as an opt-in feature.

* fixup! document thread-safety aspects
