Having sim return an error if an invalid RO field is written
is useful from a testing prespective, since nothing should do a set
without the correct entry 0 GUID.

A strict reading of the spec would say that no GUIDInfo set is
invalid, even if it tries to set non-zero values for entries past the
GUIDCap. I don't see how that is useful behavior for ibsim.
