Subject: [PATCH] stm class: Use correct UUID APIs

From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@...ux.intel.com>

It appears that the STM code didn't manage to accurately decypher the
delicate inner workings of an alternative thought process behind the
UUID API and directly called generate_random_uuid() that clearly needs
to be a static function in lib/uuid.c.

At the same time, said STM code is poking directly at the byte array
inside the uuid_t when it uses the UUID for its internal purposes.

Fix these two transgressions by using intended APIs instead.
