I've addressed all items, except formatting a table... I can't build docs to make a reasonable judgement if the table looks OK.

Changes:
- restored leakproof flag of functions without arguments to be consistent with gen_random_uuid()
- improved uuidv7() synopsis

Also PFA a prototype of making uuidv7() ordered across all backends via keeping previous_ns in shared memory. IMO it's overcomplicating and RFC does not require such guarantees. Also, this would cost us several hundreds of ns on each uuidv7() call. I think we should focus on committing existing implementation and leave such things for a future improvement.

Thanks!

Best regards, Andrey Borodin.
