fix(middlewareNode): bump uuid 8.3.2 -> 11.1.1 (Issue 4)

[Deepesh-Katudia]

Summary

Bump uuid 8.3.2 -> 11.1.1 in middlewareNode, isolated in its own PR so it can be reviewed and reverted on its own.

Part of a stacked series. Merge in order: audit-fix -> axios -> nodemailer -> googleapis -> uuid -> node-nlp. Each PR targets the previous branch, so its diff shows only its own bump; After merging each one, click "Delete branch" (this repo does not auto-delete merged branches). That makes GitHub retarget the next PR to main and run CI on it; if the branch is not deleted, the next PR must be retargeted to main by hand before merging, or it will merge into a dead branch. (5/6, stacked on #243)

Type of Change

• New feature
• Bug fix
• Refactor
• Documentation update
• Style/UI update
• Performance improvement
• Other (please specify): dependency / security update (Issue 4)

Key Changes

• middlewareNode/package.json: one-line range change; lockfile updated accordingly.
• Deliberately not latest. uuid 14.x drops the CommonJS require export entirely, which would break require("uuid") at runtime in this CommonJS codebase, not just under Jest. 11.1.1 is the lowest release that is both non-vulnerable and CommonJS-compatible.

Testing

• Unit tests added/updated
• Integration tests added/updated
• Manual testing performed: plain node -e "require(...)" of the package (catches CommonJS/ESM breakage that Jest mocks can hide)
• All tests pass: 22/22 suites, 264/264 tests after clean npm ci

Bugs Fixed (if applicable)

• npm audit after this PR: 3 findings (0 critical, 3 high)

TODO (Follow-up Work)

• Merge only after fix(middlewareNode): bump googleapis 107.0.0 -> 178.1.1 (Issue 4) #243.

Additional Notes

Version vetted by @THRISHMA2424 on dependancyFix; regenerated fresh off current main.
