Background:

Create a link between a physical board being connected to a host via an on board debugger and the corresponding Open-CMSIS-Pack compliant board description such that board (as well as mounted device) information can be automatically selected by tools.
The board vendor creates a 128 bit UUID for each board revision and embeds it in the debugger firmware and the package description as part of the board tag.
Universally Uniqe Identifier
Format: 8-4-4-4-12 for a total of 36 characters (32 hexadecimal characters and 4 hyphens).
For example:

    123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000
    xxxxxxxx-xxxx-Mxxx-Nxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

Change request:

Add new optional attribute Buuid of type string (36 characters long [0-9a-f-] to the specification of the board element.
E.g.:

   <board Bvendor="MyVendor" Bname="MyName" Brevision="Rev A" Buuid="123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000">

Implementation:

E.g. in CMSIS-DAP:
Add a new CMSIS DAP_Info field to return the UUID
Corresponding request for extension in CMSIS-DAP: ARM-software/CMSIS_5#1433

Known limitations:

In case multiple boards are connected concurrently, the user needs to chose the active board from the list of the connected boards.

     - added 'memory' and 'algorithm' child elements to the boards element to describe board-specific memory
     - added 'Bvendor', 'Bname', 'Brevision' attribute to conditions element to allow board specific filtering.
