 * summary:
 *   The LightweightGenerator is intended to be small and fast,
 *   but not necessarily good.
 *
 * description:
 *   Small: The LightweightGenerator has a small footprint.
 *   Once comments are stripped, it's only about 25 lines of
 *   code, and it doesn't dojo.require() any other packages.
 *
 *   Fast: The LightweightGenerator can generate lots of new
 *   UUIDs fairly quickly (at least, more quickly than the other
 *   dojo UUID generators).
 *
 *   Not necessarily good: We use Math.random() as our source
 *   of randomness, which may or may not provide much randomness.
