[SPARK-23599][SQL] Use RandomUUIDGenerator in Uuid expression ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? As stated in Jira, there are problems with current `Uuid` expression which uses `java.util.UUID.randomUUID` for UUID generation. This patch uses the newly added `RandomUUIDGenerator` for UUID generation. So we can make `Uuid` deterministic between retries. ## How was this patch tested? Added unit tests.
