Added a fallback to the vmware builder when trying to determine the networkmapping configuration.

Some instances of VMWare will not generate the networkmapping configuration (netmap.conf)
at the time of installation. To deal with this issue, we check for the networkmapping file
first, and then fallback to the networking file which also might exist and contain the
interface information that we require.

This fixes issue #10009.
