Support format: uuid #707
Description
Motivation
Our API spec heavily uses UUID-typed fields, which are represented in our OpenAPI doc using format: uuid as described in the JSONSchema spec.
However, swift-openapi-generator currently ignores that part of the OpenAPI doc and generates them all as Swift.String, meaning we have to manually call UUID.uuidString and UUID(uuidString:) (and implement required error handling on the latter).
Proposed solution
Make the generator respect format: uuid and define such fields using the Swift UUID type.

Thanks for filing this @liambutler-lawrence.
This is a duplicate of #375, which is a more general ask for generating more typed values.
There's an open PR, #627, that specifically adds support for UUID, but that's currently blocked on working out a backwards compatibility story (see #627 (comment)).
