Support for converting between UUID and String

It would be nice to have UUID support for $convert and $toString functions - and maybe also having a new $toUuid function added. We have documents with UUIDs stored as UUIDs, and others where they are stored as Strings - and need to $lookup a document with an UUID type _id from a document where that uuid is stored as a String. As far as I can tell that is currently not possible.
