Draft: Set wayland_output name to "model serialnumber" rather than ConnectorName

Méven Car requested to merge (removed):outputname-no-connector into master

This will make output names and uuid constant per-ouput.

Connector Name are, id in particulary, volatile.

This will allow plasmashell to restore containment settings regardless of the connector a screen is connected to.

This will imply settings loss for users though, old containments will be lost with this. This is more to open a discussion first.

WaylandOutputDevice already uses "Vendor model serialnumber" used by Kscreen.
