/**
 * CombGenerator generates COMBs (combined UUID/timestamp)
 *
 * The CombGenerator, when used with the StringCodec (and, by proxy, the
 * TimestampLastCombCodec) or the TimestampFirstCombCodec, combines the current
 * timestamp with a UUID (hence the name &quot;COMB&quot;). The timestamp either appears
 * as the first or last 48 bits of the COMB, depending on the codec used.
 *
 * By default, COMBs will have the timestamp set as the last 48 bits of the
 * identifier.
 *
 * ``` php
 * $factory = new UuidFactory();
 *
 * $factory-&gt;setRandomGenerator(new CombGenerator(
 *     $factory-&gt;getRandomGenerator(),
 *     $factory-&gt;getNumberConverter()
 * ));
 *
 * $comb = $factory-&gt;uuid4();
 * ```
 *
 * To generate a COMB with the timestamp as the first 48 bits, set the
 * TimestampFirstCombCodec as the codec.
 *
 * ``` php
 * $factory-&gt;setCodec(new TimestampFirstCombCodec($factory-&gt;getUuidBuilder()));
 * ```
