Walkthrough

This PR adds UUID form control support to the FormsEngine system by creating a new Uuid component, registering it in the control map, implementing value extraction logic with UUID generation, and augmenting the uuid descriptor with a defaultValue field.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
UUID Descriptor Configuration ui/app/src/components/ContentTypeManagement/descriptors/controls/uuid.ts	Added a defaultValue field to uuidDescriptor.fields with textarea type, undefined default, and a readonly property set to true.
UUID Form Control Component ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/controls/Uuid.tsx	Created new Uuid component that conditionally renders a readonly Text control based on the hidden field property, with UuidProps interface extending ControlProps.
FormsEngine Integration ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/lib/controlMap.ts, ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/lib/valueRetrievers.ts	Registered Uuid component in controlMap via lazy import; added uuidExtractor function to handle value retrieval with UUID generation fallback, and updated valueRetrieverLookup mapping for 'uuid' control type.
