By adding this attribute we'll start having a way to allow resources
inheritance between OSes and its absence will be considered as "false".
An example of how it'll look like is:
foo:
<resources arch="all">
<minimum>
<n_cpus>1</n_cpus>
<storage>123456789</storage>
</minimum>
</resources>
bar (which derives-from/clones foo):
<resources arch="all" inherit="true">
<minimum>
<n_cpus>3</n_cpus>
<ram>12345678</ram>
</minimum>
</resources>
When querying for bar' minimum resources we should get:
n_cpus: 3
cpu: -1 (not set)
ram: 12345678
storage: 123456789
It means, basically all value *non* set for bar, will inherit the value
that's set for foo (in case we have any).
For the cases where we don't want to inherit something, we should do:
foo:
<resources arch="all">
<minimum>
<n_cpus>1</n_cpus>
<storage>123456789</storage>
</minimum>
</resources>
bar (which derives-from/clones foo):
<resources arch="all" inherit="false">
<minimum>
<n_cpus>3</n_cpus>
<ram>12345678</ram>
</minimum>
</resources>
When querying for bar' minimum resources we should get:
n_cpus: 3
cpu: -1 (not set)
ram: 12345678
storage: -1 (not set)
