This release includes new functionality (PR #31) to help consumers extract a time.Time value out of a Version 1 UUID.

UUIDs have their own internal timestamp, which is a counter of 100ns increments since the start of the Gregorian Calendar (00:00:00 UTC on 15 Oct, 1582). To represent that a new Timestamp type was added, with a Time() method used to convert the timestamp value to a time.Time value.

To extract the timestamp from a Version 1 UUID, a new package function (TimestampFromV1) was added to extract a Timestamp out of a UUID. If it's not a V1 UUID it returns an error.

Big thanks to Ron Kuris (@rkuris) for this contribution!
