machine: qemu fix chardev id starting with letter
qemu need the id to start with a letter for some reason. If this is not the case qemu will fail: ``` qemu-system-x86_64: -device virtserialport,chardev=ad053e0bb519f_ready,name=org.fedoraproject.port.0: Property 'virtserialport.chardev' can't find value 'ad053e0bb519f_ready' er Identifiers consist of letters, digits, '-', '.', '_', starting with a letter. ``` To fix this we just add an "a" in front of it.
