[PATCH 2/5] virrandom: Accept "nodedev" driver in virRandomGenerateWWN()

The virRandomGenerateWWN() is used solely by nodedev driver to autogenerate WWNN and WWNP when parsing a nodedev XML. Now, the idea was (at least during monolithic daemon) that depending on which hypervisor driver called the nodedev XML parsing (and virRandomGenerateWWN() under the hood) the corresponding OUI is used (e.g. "001a4a" for the QEMU driver). But in era of split daemons things are not that easy. We do not know which hypervisor driver called us. And there might be no hypervisor driver at all - users are allowed to connect to individual drivers directly (e.g. "nodedev:///system"). In this case, we can't use proper OUI. Well, do the next best thing: pick one. By a fair roll of dice the one used by the QEMU driver (QUMRANET_OUI) was chosen.
