Summary: uuid documentation

Initial Comment:
This is a rough documentation of the uuid module.

2.5 b1 is just around the corner, but unfortunately
uuid module has no documentation without its docstrings.

This document is basically created by converting
docstrings into TeX formats. The quality may not be
high enough, yet I suspect most parts(albeit not all)
of the module are covered. 

But I need some help. My concernes are:

- Where ot put it?
- How to handle constants?
  NAMESPACE_XXX(used for uuid3/5)
  RESERVED_XXX(return value of UUID.variant attribute)
  (I commented out RESERVED_XXX constants.)
- Overall structure, wording, etc.

Hopefully, one of the release team members will commit
this before 2.5 b1.
