[Building Sakai] Idea: Change the GUID generator for Sakai

[Steve Swinsburg]

I  not bothered if this changes or not. The Oracle guid generator doesn't
use dashes so we can save at least 4 chars :)

On another point, we should add the short url feature to site info in the
same way it's added for resources.

Cheers
