uuid_parse - convert an input UUID string into binary representation

#include <uuid/uuid.h>
 I int uuid_parse( char * in , uuid_t  uu );

The uuid_parse function converts the UUID string given by in into the binary representation. The input UUID is a string of the form 1b4e28ba-2fa1-11d2-883f-b9a761bde3fb (in printf(3) format "%08x-%04x-%04x-%04x-%012x", 36 bytes plus the trailing '\0').

Upon successfully parsing the input string, 0 is returned, and the UUID is stored in the location pointed to by R uu , otherwise -1 is returned.
