ISCSI: Pick default initiator-name based on the name of the VM

This patch updates the iscsi layer to automatically pick a
'unique' initiator-name based on the name of the vm in case the user
has not set an explicit iqn-name to use.

Save the -name of the vm so that we can use it in the default iscsi name.

Add a new variable that holds the name for the vm as specified by -name
and assign this name to the iscsi_name pointer gtom block/iscsi.c

This way we can thus create default names to use as the initiator name
based on the guest session.

If -name is not specified, iscsi will use a default initiator-name of
iqn.2008-11.org.linux-kvm

If -name is specified, then iscsi will use a default initiatorname of
iqn.2008-11.org.linux-kvm:<name>

As a rule of thumb, every #ifdef CONFIG_* increases the chances that
your patch is rejected. :)

Please add instead a qemu_get_vm_name() function and make it return NULL
in qemu-tool.c.
