Convert Uuid to a url friendly 22 character string blob

This is useful for url links to a unique record, and is shorter than the 36 character stringified uuid.

Example usage


   let uuid = Uuid::parse_str("557c8018-5e21-4b74-8bb0-9040e2e8ead1").unwrap();
   assert_eq!("VXyAGF4hS3SLsJBA4ujq0Q", blob_uuid::to_blob(uuid));
