We should avoid adding attributes to the top level <pool> tag.
The vendor/model is a piece of metadata associated with the
pool source, so it should be under

     <vendor name='test-vendor'/>
     <product name='test-product'/>

Also NB I called it 'product' instead of 'model', since that 
matches the terminology we use in the node device XML format
