[Libvirt-cim] [PATCH] Hang a default VSSD off of the VSMC to mirror the AC RASD behavior

Yeah, you know, I did that on purpose.  However, after some pondering
and a little consultation, I think you're right.  I'd propose that we
set InstanceID to something like "TEMPORARY".  This will be both (a)
invalid for use in any other VSSD capacity, and (b) will indicate to a
human looking at it that it's a transient placeholder.  Perhaps we
should go a step further and add some randomness to the end to make it
unique, per the rules.  The template RASDs should probably be updated
with the same behavior.

Thoughts?
