The ramsey/uuid library has requirements to run on 32-bit and 64-bit
systems, as well as little-endian and big-endian systems. Travis CI only
provides hardware for testing 64-bit, little-endian CPU architectures,
but they recently announced support for Docker[^1].
After some research, I found it is possible to use [QEMU][] with
[chroot][] jails on Travis CI to emulate other CPU architectures and run
tests through these chroot jails[^2]. Unfortunately, it takes an awful
long time to set up a chroot jail, build PHP within it, and run the
tests. It wasn't reasonable to expect to do this on every single push to
the ramsey/uuid repository. This is where Docker comes in.
I was able to create chroot jails for each architecture and version of
PHP combination I need to test and then turn these into Docker images,
which Travis is able to download and run fairly quickly. The instances
on which Travis CI is running their Docker services do not currently
support phpenv or php-build, so I needed to masquerade as a Python
project and specify all PHP versions and CPU architectures in
environment variables in my `.travis.yml` configuration. I run
`composer install` and report to Coveralls outside of the Docker images,
but all tests are run within the Docker images.
The Docker image I created for PHP 7.0.0RC4 on MIPS architecture
produces segfaults when attempting to build PHP with Phar. PHP builds
okay without Phar, but then it produces segfaults when running any PHP
script on the image, so I'm leaving out 7.0.0RC4 on MIPS for now.

- Remove UuidFactory from signature
- Remove setters on UuidFactory to prevent inconsistencies (a new feature set and factory should be used instead)
- Update tests to reflect those changes
Defers all environment related decisions to factory initialization
All behavior is customizable through DI, but all deps are initialized to proper default instances
Removes static factory configuration
Remove $littleEndian parameter
Add fromGuidString/Bytes factory methods for GUIDs
No longer possible to output GUIDs as UUIDs and vice-versa
Pass tests
