A TryFrom<&str> impl for GUID #3174
Description
Suggestion
Dear windows-rs team,
If I were to contribute a impl TryFrom<&str> for GUID as a pull request, would that be welcomed?
The current impl From<&str> for GUID causes panics on invalid GUID strings which I would like to avoid.
If the windows-rs team does not yet want to introduce Result types, then I'd also be okay with a function that returns Option<GUID>—I'm don't necessarily need a function that returns a Result.
Thank you!

Kenny Kerr (@kennykerr) is there documentation on the cadence for which the repo publishes to crates.io. Been hoping to use this for a while but noticed we're still at 0.58.0 on crates.io https://crates.io/crates/windows/versions

Crates are published as needed to avoid version churn. So there won't be a release unless there's a specific need or request for a specific crate to be updated. Generally developers will test against the repo and when they themselves are ready to publish they will then request a release.
A good example is today's 0.60.0 release that was requested by rustup after much validation.
