Description
Last item left to finish with Issue #239 is to add UUIDs to files. At first this will be an easy backwards-compatible change, but if we start relying on file UUIDs for any functionality (maybe external tooling?) it will become necessary.
See G-Node/nix#775

Research direction
Start by reviewing Issue #239 and G-Node/nix#775 for the intended UUID behavior, then locate the Python File object implementation and any existing identifier handling. Confirm the backwards-compatibility requirements and determine what tests cover File objects; done means files expose UUIDs without breaking existing behavior.
