Remove UUIDs from IDL files. The UUID is dead code since we no longer generate
COM bindings.

<arv> What are the UUID's in the idl files used for?
<arv>  I see UUIDs being reused across idl files which seems counter intuitive
<bdash> arv: in the DOM binding IDLs?
<arv> bdash, yup
<bdash> arv: i suspect they were intended to be used in the generated COM
bindings
<bdash> arv: but those aren't generated any more so I bet they're unused
<bdash> arv: weinig would probably know for sure
<arv> bdash: so, generating new UUIDs for my new IDL is the way to go?
<weinig> arv: that is dead code
<weinig> arv: don't bother adding new ones
<weinig> we need to remove the ones that exist
<arv> weinig: thanks
<weinig> the COM bindings have been disabled
<bdash> someone should file a bug about removing them then

Done
