HMC should provide Disk UDID in Topology view and REST API

When querying the "lshwres -r virtualio --rsubtype fc --level lpar -Ftopology -m <system name>" command, the virtual storage connections of the LPARs are displayed. For a storage connection via virtual FC adapters (NPIV) the parameter "-Ftopology" can be used to display also the name of the disk in the client LPAR, instead of only displaying the name of the disk.
For a unique identification of this disk it is necessary to have the UDID displayed as well.
