In the case of guidstr we are switching two functions where the existing
one has one constant extra parameter.

In EFI_PRINT_GUID we would replace a single
debug(format, guid)
by code that would have to check _DEBUG that only is used inside the
definition of debug, a variable declaration, a call to uuid_guid_get_str
and a printf.

I think we should not evaluate _DEBUG outside include/common.h.
