test: generate uuid on startup for load tool (#9383) (#9392)

the `NewClient` method is called by the load test framework for each connection. This means that if multiple connections are instantiated, each connection will erroneously have its own UUID. This PR changes the UUID generation to happen at the _beginning_ of the script instead of on client creation so that each experimental run shares a UUID.

Caught while preparing the script for production readiness.

#### PR checklist

- [ ] Tests written/updated, or no tests needed
- [ ] `CHANGELOG_PENDING.md` updated, or no changelog entry needed
- [ ] Updated relevant documentation (`docs/`) and code comments, or no
      documentation updates needed

(cherry picked from commit 59a711eabe)
