validate_ncbi_uid()which checks if the input is a valid NCBI UID.ncbi_post_uid()which post uids to NCBI and return ancbi_uidobject with web history.While this does not impact the behavior of functions when they try to access invalid web histories, it does enable the users to generate new web histories for their UIDs if they want. UIDs may come from outside webseq in which case they will not have web history, they may be generated without web history, or their web history may expire. In any case, if a new web history is needed for a vector uids, this function can be used to generate one.
