block/vpc: Don't take address of fields in packed structs
Taking the address of a field in a packed struct is a bad idea, because it might not be actually aligned enough for that pointer type (and thus cause a crash on dereference on some host architectures). Newer versions of clang warn about this. Avoid the bug by generating the UUID into a local variable which is definitely safely aligned and then copying it into place.
