Use stdlib uuid7 on Python 3.14+, fall back to vendored implementation (#205)
Python 3.14 added native uuid7() support, so we can now use it when available and only fall back to our vendored implementation on older Python versions (3.10-3.13). Modified `_uuid7.py` to detect stdlib availability at import time. When stdlib uuid7 is available and called with default parameters, we use the native implementation for better performance. For extended functionality (custom timestamps, output formats like hex/int/bytes), we still use the vendored implementation. Added 13 tests covering uuid7 functionality including version/variant checking, chronological ordering, uniqueness, and all output formats. The vendored implementation can be removed once we drop Python 3.13 support.

Implementation notes
72-
--------------------
32+
This implementation matches stdlib behavior by using a sequence counter

7335
7436
The 128 bits in the UUID are allocated as follows:

- 36 bits of whole seconds
7638
- 24 bits of fractional seconds, giving approx 50ns resolution
77-
- 14 bits of sequential counter, if called repeatedly in same time tick
39+
- 14 bits of sequence counter (increments when time unchanged)
7840
- 48 bits of randomness

plus, at locations defined by RFC4122, 4 bits for the
80-
uuid version (0b111) and 2 bits for the uuid variant (0b10).
