Generate UUID by crypto (#1082)

This PR replaces the use of the "uuid" library with Node’s built-in crypto module for generating UUIDs (nodejs >=  v14.17.0).

- Removed dependency on the "uuid" package in test and library files.
- Replaced uuidv4() calls with crypto.randomUUID() calls for generating UUIDs.

Reference:
- https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/crypto.html#cryptorandomuuidoptions

Fix: #1081
