Description

This proposal comes from a StackOverflow post (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58439232/generate-uuid5-in-nifi) to add the capability of generating a namespace-based UUID v5 value. There is a reference implementation here but of course caution should be used (with respect to licensing) before incorporating any existing code.
