VMware: resize operations fail

[Radoslav Gerganov]

The driver function get_host_ip_addr() is needed by the resource_tracker and if it is missing the resize operation fails. This is regression caused by the deprecation of the ESX driver with commit 1deb31f85a8f5d1e261b2cf1eddc537a5da7f60b

We need to bring back get_host_ip_addr() and return the IP address of the vCenter server

    VMware: implement get_host_ip_addr

    This patch fixes a regression caused by commit
    1deb31f85a8f5d1e261b2cf1eddc537a5da7f60b. The function get_host_ip_addr
    is used by the resource_tracker and if it is not implemented all resize
    operations fail.

    Also put back the check for missing host, user, password config options
    in the driver constructor.

    Closes-bug: #1356449
