Intercept /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid #3188

@sporksmith

Description

@sporksmith

From proc(2):

       /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid (since Linux 2.4)
              Each read from this read-only file returns a randomly generated 128-bit UUID, as a string in the standard UUID format.

I noticed the tor unit tests read this file; not sure whether tor reads it in production.
