Bastien Orivel d3aa28925f Add a check attribute on the mac address element
This is only used in the ESX driver where, when set to "no", it will
ignore all the checks libvirt does about the origin of the MAC address
(whether or not it's in a VMWare OUI) and forward the original one to
the ESX server telling it not to check it either.

This allows keeping a deterministic MAC address which can be useful for
licensed software which might dislike changes.

Bastien Orivel 4bd375b6ce Change the virtual NICs limit for the ESX driver
Since the ESX virtual hardware version 4.0, virtual machines support up
to 10 virtual NICs instead of 4 previously. This changes the limit
accordingly based on the provided `virtualHW.version`.
