Default UUID patch broke win32

Seems the UUID patch broke Windows builds.
http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/s...-28%2018:30:01

uuid_t is defined to UUID in the win32 platform SDK header files. I
would suggest we use pguuid_t or something like that instead.

We could possibly try to workaround it by #undef'ing any existing uuid_t
definitions before we supply our own, but per out-of-band discussion
with Magnus, it seems safer to just use a different type name
altogether. Attached is a patch that renames uuid_t to pg_uuid_t (and
makes some other minor cleanup of uuid.c), which I'll apply shortly.
