Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As an app developer, I want to generate version 6 UUIDs, so that I can use them in my database for indexes without too much trouble for scalability.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Using a different library, but I'd like to avoid yet another dependency just for this specific use case.

I'd rather contribute a first implementation.
