The UUID library is even more ubiquitous than iconv, and it hasn't 
changed its API and ABI for maybe 20 years.
MediaFoundation and dshow already depends on it silently, and
vulkan can optionally use it to parse user-given UUIDs, which I think
would be a popular way to specify devices on servers.

Patch attached.
Subject: [PATCH] configure: autodetect uuid and use it for dshow and vulkan

The UUID library is even more ubiquitous than iconv, and it hasn't
changed its API and ABI for maybe 20 years.
dshow already depends on it silently, and vulkan can optionally use
it to parse user-given UUIDs, which I think would be a popular way
to specify devices on servers.

The "uuid" library on Windows is something entirely different, it's just a 
collection of GUID constants, not the uuid parsing/generation tools of the 
unix libuuid.

Oh, I see.
I'll leave this patch here if anyone wants to pick it up/needs it.
