This commit changes the default BSON representation of java.util.UUID
values from JAVA_LEGACY (BSON binary subtype 3 with the Java driver's
legacy byte order) to UNSPECIFIED.
This forces applications that encode or decode documents from MongoDB that
contain java.util.UUID values to explicitly specify the UUID representation
that they want to use. Typically, a new application would choose the
STANDARD (BSON binary subtype 4) representation, while an existing application
upgrading to the 4.0 driver would choose JAVA_LEGACY. Applications that
do not use UUID values (preferring ObjectId, for example) are not required
to specify the UUID representation.
Applications can specify the UUID representation either with the
uuidRepresentation connection string parameter or the uuidRepresentation
property on MongoClientSettings or MongoClientOptions.
