Hello

Based on http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2010-July/msg00480.html, I created this quick patch to accept connection to vSphere 5.x
Notes:
- I had to remove the warnings for version > 4.1 & 5 because they were generating errors when running scripts encapsulating virsh commands with opennebula. A better option might be to relie on an environment variable (for example DONT_BLAME_LIBVIRT!) to toggle warnings on/off
- Ran only a few tests but it works as expected.
- Next steps should be to work on VMware API 5. integration
