This patch fixes an issue where screenshot API call was failing when
the esx/vcenter password contains special characters such as
apostrophee. The reason for failures was that passwords were escaped
for XML and stored in esxVI_Context which was then passed to raw CURL
API calls where the password must be passed in original form to
authenticate successfully. So this patch addresses this by storing
original passwords in the esxVI_Context struct and escape only for
esxVI_Login call.
When a SCSI controller is present, ESX adds several pciBridge devices
to vmx file. This fixes an error message where it refuses to create VM
due to not enough PCI devices available. This applies only to virtualHW
version >= 7.
Since the holdtime is not supported by VBOX SDK, it's being simulated
by sleeping before sending the key-up codes. The key-up codes are
auto-generated based on XT codeset rules (adding of 0x80 to key-down)
which results in the same behavior as for QEMU implementation.
Before this patch, when connected via vCenter, the free memory returned
was from the resorcePool (usually a cluster). This is in conflict with
e.g esxNodeGetInfo which always pulls info from the ESX host.
Since libvirt ESX driver works primarily with ESX hosts, this patch
changes esxNodeGetFreeMemory to pull that information from ESX host so
it's consistent with behavior of esxNodeGetInfo.
For VBOX it's most likely that the connection is vbox:///session and it
runs with local non-root account. This caused permission denied when
LOCALSTATEDIR was used to create temp file. This patch makes use of the
virGetUserCacheDirectory to address this problem for non-root users.
