VM.save updated the VM one changed attribute at a time, rather than in one command #8

As the title says, if you do this for example:

vm = VirtualBox::VM.find('Example VM')
vm.name = "Change me"
vm.ostype = "windowsxp"
vm.save

Expected:

vboxmanage managevm "Example VM" --name "Change Me" --ostype "windowsxp"

Actual:

vboxmanage managevm "Example VM" --name "Change Me"
vboxmanage managevm "Example VM" --ostype "windowsxp"

The problem of course becomes apparent when you start update 20+ attributes

Marked as a feature request because its not really a "bug" since it works, it just works in a way that is a bit annoying. This shouldn't be too hard to do, actually.
