COT support for creating placeholder disks #69

Description

(Split off from #68)

If I could get cot to add disks with no images, I think I could ditch my own work altogether, then.

"Disks with no images" - as in Disk elements with no associated fileRef? COT recognizes these as valid but I don't currently have support for creating them. Wouldn't be hard to add though I think. If that's not what you're looking for, please clarify.

yes - A type 17 and a with a capacity but no fileRef or populatedSize, so it shows up as an unformatted block device in the final VM. I think a few things use this kind of arrangement for log or database partitions where the sizing is different depending on the deployment option chosen. In my use case, the extra disks only exist in some of the configurations.
