Subject: qapi/machine: Clarify query-uuid value when none has been specified
X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dd950220c08938e14abb0357107ca8500cb913c9;p=qemu.git

qapi/machine: Clarify query-uuid value when none has been specified

When no UUID has been specified, query-uuid returns

    {"UUID": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"}

The doc comment calls this "a null UUID", which I find less than
clear.  RFC 9562 calls it "the nil UUID (all zeroes)", so use that
instead.
