Bug Description

Calling vmware's API with inactive session returns empty response.
Normally, oslo-vmware recreates the session and retries to call the API (API 1). However, if the session is recreated by another thread (not the thread which has called API 1), an empty response will be returned due to unauthenticated session. In this situation, oslo-vmware will mistake "empty response caused by unauthenticated session" for "valid empty response".
If this phenomenon is happened, getting resources is failed.
For example, when PbmQueryProfile API is called to get storage policies during volume creation, sometimes it failed to get storage policies due to this phenomenon.
