[PATCH 1/2] vbox: Address false positive for NULL dereference

[John Ferlan <jferlan@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Resolve a false positive from 'vboxIIDFromUUID_v2_x()'. The code sets
'iid->value = &iid->backing' unconditionally prior to calling 'nsIDFromChar()'.
The 'vboxIIDUnalloc_v2_x()' checks iid->value to not be &iid->backing. The
iid->backing is a static buffer within the initialized structure.
