/**
 * A First Fit VM allocation policy
 * which finds the first Host having suitable resources to place a given VM.
 * This is a high time-efficient policy with a best-case complexity O(1)
 * and a worst-case complexity O(N), where N is the number of Hosts.
 * Additionally, such a policy is resource efficient, because it performs
 * server consolidation by trying to place the maximum number of VMs
 * into the same Host in order to increase Host's resource usage.
 *
 * 
 *     NOTES:
 *     

 *         This policy doesn't perform optimization of VM allocation by means of VM migration.
 *         It has a low computational complexity but may return
 *         and inactive Host that will be activated, while there may be active Hosts
 *         suitable for the VM.
 *
