Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

We should implement DevDeviceId generation, following along with the python and golang implementations. We should send this field as the property DevDeviceId and we should not hash this value. We should investigate the behavior of this implementation under sudo and non-sudo use cases to make sure that we don't crash. If we cannot generate a value, we should send the property with an empty string.

Go-deviceid mentions "based on the DevDeviceId specification" but is the specification public?
