Description
As a user, I would like to have a uniquely created `host.id` even when using VM (VDI, virtual desktop infrastructure)
**The problem:**
The `host.id` isn't unique enough, we are using `elastic/go-sysinfo` to generate the `host.id` from hardware information but if you have two VM from the same images it's possible that the `host.id` is the same.
