Create a new attribute for virtio-blk devices that will fetch the serial number
of the block device. This attribute can be used by udev to create disk/by-id
symlinks for devices that don't have a UUID (filesystem) associated with them.
ATA_IDENTIFY strings are special in that they can be up to 20 chars long
and aren't required to be NULL-terminated. The buffer is also zero-padded
meaning that if the serial is 19 chars or less that we get a NULL terminated
string. When copying this value into a string buffer, we must be careful to
copy up to the NULL (if it present) and only 20 if it is longer and not to
attempt to NULL terminate; this isn't needed.
