Add a private _UUIDSentinels() class to oslo_utils.fixture that behaves like a mock.sentinel, but returns specifically UUIDs. Expose a (singleton) instance of it called uuidsentinel. This is mostly copied from [1], with the following differences: - We don't do the enforced-singleton thing [2]. But importing the uuidsentinel global yields the same behavior. - We don't do the local import thing [3][4], because we're already in the right lib, so no issues with circular imports. - Locking is added to make this threadsafe. (See discussion at [5]) Note that there is some question as to whether it is more appropriate for this to live here or in oslotest [6]. This has been discussed on the dev ML [7] and it was concluded [8] that it should live here.
