Bug#965066: googler: leaks MAC address

[Jakub Wilk]

Package: googler
Version: 4.1-1

Googler does this:

  self._query_dict = {
       # ...
       'sei': 
base64.encodebytes(uuid.uuid1().bytes).decode("ascii").rstrip('=\n').replace('/',
 '_'),
  }

This may leak the machine's MAC address to Google.
Please use random-based uuid.uuid4() instead.
