Specifications:

TimeUuid#<=> sorts by the time component

uuids.shuffle.sort.should == uuids

TimeUuid#<=> allows comparison of UUID and TimeUUID

x = generator.now
y = Uuid.new(x.value)
x.should == y

TimeUuid#<=> allows comparison of TimeUUID and nil

x = generator.now
y = nil
lambda { x.should_not == y }.should_not raise_error
