Autogenerated metadata / make the EntityDescriptor/ID stable

Description

Currently the EntityDescriptor/ID XML attribute changes regularly. It may complicate metadata aggregation tasks because it becomes harder to compare two versions of the metadata.

I suggest that the EntityDescriptor/ID could be generated by hashing the resource entityID.

Thanks.

If ID is not set via a template, it will be based on a hash of the entityID. A salt property can be used to alter the hash in a stable fashion and can be incremented/changed any time the configuration changes to signal a change to the metadata.
