Option to have 'key:value' pair tags in Power HMC.

HMC V10R3 allows to define LPAR description and group tags, but it is not possible to create the tags in the 'key:value' format. This is a standard format on other platforms and already adopted on IBM Cloud.

There are several modernization, monitoring and automation initiatives in the power systems platform and having the option of "key:value" tag pairs would facilitate and allow customer to implement some actions that already exist in other environments.

    This was in the early V10 documentation and I couldn't get it to work.  Opened a ticket and was told the documentation was wrong and would be reworded/corrected.
