Use UUIDv4 in TDirectory (hence in TDirectoryFile and TFile) and in the RMiniFile. Note that TDirectory is used without gSystem (needed for GetCryptoRandom()) in the context of rootcling. In principle, GetCryptoRandom() should work without a TSystem object. That may be for a later commit. The UUIDv4, unlike the current UUIDv1, is (with high enough probability) globally unique. (cherry picked from commit b387638)
Factor out calling the OS crypto random number generator into a free function in the Base package. In turn, TSystem::GetCryptoRandom() can be static and does not rely in gSystem being initialized. (cherry picked from commit f20d779)
