builder/vmware/{iso,vmx}:
Added the specific configuration options that get parsed.
Normalize paths when pulling them from the json template so that they'll work on Windows too.
Added some improved error checking when parsing these options.
Stash the vm's network connection type so that other steps can figure out addressing information
Modified the esx5 driver to support the new addressing logic.
Modified the template in step_create_vmx to include the new options.
builder/vmware/common:
Implemented a parser for vmware's configuration files to the vmware builder.
Modified the driver's interface to include support for resolving both guest/host hw and ip addresses
Implemented a base structure with some methods that implement these features.
Rewrote all ip and mac address dependent code to utilize these new methods.
Removed host_ip and guest_ip due to their logic being moved directly into a
base-structure used by each driver. The code was explicitly checking runtime.GOOS
instead of portably using net.Interfaces() anyways.
Updated driver_mock to support the new addressing methods
* The remotedisplay.vnc.ip vmx data key breaks ESXi, this commit prevents it
from being automatically added during VNC configuration when using the ESX5
driver.
* It can still be configured via the vmx_data section of the builder
template

If `format` option is configured, packer exports the VM with ovftool.

post-processor/vsphere: Enable to use `mitchellh.vmware-esx` artifact type and OVF and OVA formats, fixes#1457.
When providing a hierarchical output_directory value like
'transient/jenkins-slave', the VM would fail to build in the CreateDisk
step. The properly created output directory would not match the location
provided to CreateDisk, since datastorePath() did not properly split such
paths. Now this case works; tested hierarchical and singular
output_directory values.
Change the default behavior from requesting a PTY when executing a
command with the ssh communicator to requesting a PTY only when
configured to do so.
Update the vmware builders to be fully backward compatible with the new
behavior.
Adds logic to ESXi driver VNC Address function to ignore listen
addresses that bind to localhost (127.0.0.1), this allows certain
default ports to be available on ESXi for VNC connections
Add configuration option to explicitly control where Packer uploads
ISO and floppy files to on ESXi hosts. The `remote_cache_datastore`
defaults to the `remote_datastore` value. The 'remote_cache_directory'
defaults to 'packer_cache', similar to the local caching capabilities.
Addresses issues with [GH-1218] and [GH-1221] where paths for uploaded
ISO and floppy files are not written to a valid location in the
datastore.
before, this code had joining path elements by filepath module. filepath module generate path string with backslash-joined in Windows. but ESX require path string with slash-joined. it means that this code generate illegal path string in windows. illegal path string raised "Error creating disk".
this patch fixes path separator from backslash to slash in windows. from this, creating disk would succeed without error.
