Description of problem: In https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=788940, we allowed products with the same name but different IDs to be created. During the demo, JC brought up that this can pose a problem if a system subscribes to the same product with two names, since we only display the product name. The user would be unable to differentiate between the two. The only way to differentiate between products in this case would be by product ID. We can display it as an additional field in "subscription-manager list --installed", and in the gui under "Product's subscription details" pane on the "my installed software tab"
