Description of problem:
When creating a new Host and specifying on Virtual Machine tab "Allocation(GB)" as empty, Host create fails with
NoMethodError: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
error. It is more user-unfriendly also due to the fact that the Allocation(GB) is purged when one clicks to "Size" button right from the value.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Sat 6.3.3
Sat 6.4 beta (checked it's also there)
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start creating a new Host
2. In Virtual Machine tab, click to "Size" button (or leave "Allocation(GB)" empty either way)
3. Fill all other parameters properly.
4. Submit the Host
Actual results:
Host create fails with "undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass"
Expected results:
Either no error (if the parameter can have empty value with some meaning), or provide some meaningfull error message before tryng to create the host (e.g. similar to leaving root password empty).

backtrace:
2018-09-04 15:20:37 18507e4a [app] [W] Failed to create a compute satotest (Libvirt) instance pmoravec-test.sysmgmt.lan: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
NoMethodError: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
/opt/theforeman/tfm/root/usr/share/gems/gems/fog-libvirt-0.2.0/lib/fog/libvirt/models/compute/volume.rb:119:in `split_size_unit'
(erb):3:in `to_xml'
Relevant code:
112 def split_size_unit(text)
113 if text.kind_of? Integer
114 # if text is an integer, match will fail
115 size = text
116 unit = 'G'
117 else
118 matcher = text.match(/(\d+)(.+)/)
119 size = matcher[1]
120 unit = matcher[2]
121 end
122 [size, unit]
123 end
that simply does not count with empty value in text
VERIFIED with Satellite 6.8 SNAP 5.0
I followed steps from initial comment and I also deleted the text field manually as it keeps prefilled "0G" when switching 'None'/'Size' buttons. Host creation continued successfully when value was empty.
