Description

This SDK uses version `~3.3.2` of the `uuid` package, which is very outdated. Version `3.3.2` of `uuid` was released 5 years ago, and has been deprecated. For reference, the current latest version of `uuid` is `9.0.0`. Trying to install the `durable-functions` module, you will get a message like this:

```console
warning durable-functions > uuid@3.3.3: Please upgrade to version 7 or higher.
Older versions may use Math.random() in certain circumstances, which is known to be problematic.
See https://v8.dev/blog/math-random for details.
```

We should update our reference of `uuid` to a newer version.
