Fixes MarshalText and adds UnmarshalJSON interface for UniqueIdentifi…

…er (#126)

* Added MarshalText() and UnmarshalJSON interfaces

- The existing MarshalText() for the UniqueIdentifier type had a bad signature. It omitted returning an error that the interface expects.
- Added UnmarshalJSON() interface to the UniqueIdentifier type with a test as well

* use strings.Replace instead of ReplaceAll
