[char-misc-next 04/11 V2] uuid: extract macros for assigning raw arrays

From: Tomas Winkler <hidden>

Subsystem: intel management engine (mei), the rest · Maintainers: Alexander Usyskin, Linus Torvalds

In order for mei client devices to use device id based on uuid we
have to use common types between user space (file2alias.c).
Similarly to vmbus,  mei  uses raw 16 byte array for that. 
To leverage on existing infrastructure around uuid_le type 
defined in uuid.h we add helper macros to handle conversions between
raw 16 byte array and uuid_{le,be} types.
