[Opensim-dev] EstateID from uint to UUID

[Melanie]

Estate ID is a purely local concept that is likely to vanish in 
newer viewers and the Hypergrid. There is no point in creating a 
double-lookup scenario.
There is nothing that says that all objects must be GUID and no 
point in refactoring for refactoring's sake.
