Add parsing support for braced and non-dashed string forms about uuid HOT 4 CLOSED

Both Parse and ParseBytes would be affected by this. I would refactor both functions to avoid repetition, and modify the test suite to include the new forms.

Would you be willing to make the same changes to pborman/uuid? These are essentially the same packages with the exception that the google one has:

type UUID [16]byte

while the (older) pborman one has:

type UUID []byte

At some point I should make one of these be implemented in terms of the other, but that will make one of them slightly slower.

github.com/pborman/uuid is being modified to leverage this package (it is the same code). I would like to see if there are any other common formats for UUIDs.

JoshuaSjoding@, would you care to do a code review of #37
