    TS-5030: Add API to get the unique client request uuid from a transaction.

    The new UUID api introduced in 
https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/736 is great for tracing 
operations and requests. However, the most useful information for plugin 
developers, the unique client request id, is not exposed as an api endpoint. 
People need to understand very well how TrafficServer works internally to 
generate this value. By not having the API directly exposed, people need to 
repeat the same code every time they want to generate this unique identifier.
    
    I'd like to add an API enpoint to generate this identifier based in a given 
http transaction for plugins to use.
    
    This is be the signature:
    
    ```
    tsapi const char * TSClientRequestUuidGet(TSHttpTxn txnp);
    ```
