  1. Fix installation/testing on Debian with OSSP::UUID 

    On Debian it's possible to install libossp-uuid-perl which provides a
compatible Data::UUID interface. Historically I believe this was for
license reasons but there are functional differences too like OSSP
providing (and defaulting) to a version 4 (random) UUID which Data::UUID
doesn't support.

Becuase the version numbers are wildly different, not specifying our
minimum version makes packaging a lot easier also because OSSP correctly
produces a lowercase UUID as per the spec then our tests fail without an
added uppercase. There's an upstream issue on Data::UUID tracking the
mismatched case - bleargh45/Data-UUID#34
