    [4.5] CLOUDSTACK-9083: Add disk serial to kvm virt xml

    Adds disk serial ids based on volume uuids to the virt xml. This may be 
useful
    for appliances/software that needs some serial ids on the VM disks. This 
does not
    impact existing/running VMs, the vm virt xmls will be updates for running 
VMs
    the next time they are stopped/started.
    
    For testing, disk serial (of debian based systemvm) in the virt xml matched 
that
    in /sys/devices/pci0000:00:0000:00:07.0/virtio4/block/vda/serial.
    
    We currently don't support scsi-blcok devices for which serial is not 
supported,
    for this we've added a DeviceType (LUN) which may be used in future and a 
check
    to not add the serial to the xml if disk type is LUN.

>
>
> Certain appliances/software fail on KVM as they require disk serials (inside 
> of the VM). The fix would be to add a disk serial (from volume uuid) in the 
> generated libvirt xml for all disks except for lun/scsi block type disks 
> (which we don't support yet, so we can add in a deviceType for now and leave 
> some comment).
