The VMware metadata file contains genid but we are not parsing
and thus reporting it in domain XML. However, it's not as
straightforward as one might think. The UUID reported by VMware
is not in its usual string form, but split into two signed long
longs. That means, we have to do a bit of trickery when parsing.
But looking around it's the same magic that libguestfs does:
https://github.com/libguestfs/virt-v2v/blob/master/v2v/input_vmx.ml#L421
It's also explained by Rich on qemu-devel:

I've successfully ran vmx2xmltest on an s390x machine which means that
there shouldn't be any endiandness problem.
