Description
https://matomo.org/docs/user-id/#user-id-with-direct-tracker-api-access
> If you are using the Tracker API directly you may set the User ID via the Tracker API parameter &uid=USER_ID.
I was able to extend the PiwikTracker class and add this extra query param. It would be nice to have this in the python api itself. If helpful, I could submit a pull request. Cheers.

Research direction
Start by locating the PiwikTracker class and reviewing how it builds Tracker API query parameters. Compare the requested User ID support with Matomo's direct Tracker API documentation and the existing API methods. Done means the Python API exposes a way to send the uid parameter, with coverage for the new behavior if tests are present.
