mei: make sysfs modalias format similar as uevent modalias

commit 6f9193ec044a8f72d8b6ae94a5c4ab6e8b0f00ca upstream.

modprobe is not able to resolve sysfs modalias for mei devices.

commit b26864cad1c9 ("mei: bus: add client protocol
version to the device alias"), however sysfs modalias
is still in formmat mei:S:uuid:*.

This patch equates format of uevent and sysfs modalias so that modprobe
is able to resolve the aliases.
