Add support for VMware disk and adapter type

VMware Compute Driver Glance improvement
Glance change to fix image download to ESX
The current glance code downloads files in a blocking/
manner, the fix improves it to work with ESX glance file reader
in a non-blocking manner.
This allows ESX glance file reader to read items from the returned
queue.
