  1. initial implementation of UUIDv6 and UUIDv7 based on RFC Draft Rev 2 

    There is currently an RFC draft in progress[1] to add three new UUID formats,
versions 6, 7, and 8, that change the internal data format so that the generated
UUIDs are k-sortable. Version 8 is a special UUID format designed for future
implementations or extensions, and as a result isn't implemented here.

Because this implementation is based on a draft RFC, they may be subject to
change in later revisions. As such, these new functions/methods include a
comment indicating they do not yet fall under the API compatibility guarantee of
the project, and changes to meet new revisions to the spec will be done in minor
releases.
