    VMware: enable configuring of console delay

    When running OpenStack in an environment where there
    is network latency the administrator will be unable to use the instance
    console. Please see http://goo.gl/gKTqYZ for explanations.

    DocImpact:
    A new configuration variable in the vmware section will be added. This
    is 'console_delay_seconds'. If set the instance created will have the
    keyboard.typematicMinDelay set to this value.
