Ensure the module still work with the ESXi where CustomFieldsManager
does not exist.
From: https://www.vmware.com/support/developer/converter-sdk/conv60_apireference/vim.CustomFieldsManager.html
The CustomFieldsManager object is used to add and remove custom fields to
managed entities.
The custom fields values set on managed entities are available through the
customValue property and through the summary objects for VirtualMachine
and HostSystem. They are not available directly through this managed object.
This functionality is only available through VirtualCenter.

All vmware_guest_* module support for use_instance_uuid from Ansible 2.8,
somehow vmware_guest_disk missed from this change.
This fix adds support for use_instance_uuid in vmware_guest_disk.

With the example, the `file_result.folderPath` of the file
does not have any trailing '/'. `target_folder_path` is correctly
generated and equal: `[nfs_1] images`.
* Add support for changing UUID type referenced
* Update all appropriate VMware modules to include UUID type
* Add integration test for filtering on instance UUID
* In some cases, it appears that Exception should have been used instead
as there's no need to catch sys.exit KeyboardInterrupt and similar.
* In a few cases, it appears that BaseException is used because
a library we depend on calls sys.exit() contrary to good coding
design. Comment those so that we know that those have been audited
and found to be correct and change to use (Exception, SystemExit)
instead.

Due to refactoring of task_error and wait_for_task method,
SSL thumbprint was lost in error message. This fixes the
retry mechanism of AddHost task.

* Avoid misleading PyVmomi error if requests import fails
Requests is imported by the VMware module_utils as an external
dependency; however, because it is in a try/catch block containing the
imports for PyVmomi, if requests fails to import properly, Ansible will
instead complain about PyVmomi not being installed.
By moving the import outside of the try/catch block, if requests fails
to import, an error like the following will be returned:
ImportError: No module named requests
This should result in less confusion.
* catch requests ImportError
When multiple virtual machines or templates are found in environment,
module needs folder path. This fix adds facility to specify folder path
for template or virtual machine if multiples are found.

* rewrite get_resource_pool method for correct resource_pool selection
* only keep name if path is given for cluster, esxi_hostname or resource_pool
* Revert "only keep name if path is given for cluster, esxi_hostname or resource_pool"
* This reverts commit 50293ec763c024b0eaceac5d775ccc0ad3ff8bd7.
* if the name argument contains a path, only use the last part for matching
* remove path from cluster argument in tests
* remove find_objs in favour of reusing find_obj with an extra folder argument
* fix find_obj ignoring first if name is not given
* First pass at vmware_deploy_ovf functionality
* Add OVA file support, re-structure code
* Move some useful functions to module_utils.vmware, and perform a little DRY too
* Better handling of errors during spec validation and import
* Properly calculate the lease progress percentage for all vmdk files
* Make warnings and errors a little better

* Add fail_on_spec_warnings to cause the module to treat warnings as errors

This module is based on vSphere REST API. This module allows
user to manage various tags and their association with
categories. This fix also adds vCenter REST client library which can
be re-used for other REST based modules.
