[PATCH] Create talloc-less functions for formating GUID

Actually I recall why I haven't changed GUID_string myself:

There is cases where the caller of GUID_string expect the string to be
talloced for instance in dns_generate_keyname in lib/addns/dnsutils.c

It's not the majority but still it's good minority so this needs to be
taken into account.
