esx: Rework datastore path parsing and handling
Instead of splitting the path part of a datastore path into directory and file name, keep this in one piece. An example: "[datastore] directory/file" was split into this before: datastoreName = "datastore" directoryName = "directory" fileName = "file" Now it's split into this: datastoreName = "datastore" directoryName = "directory" directoryAndFileName = "directory/file" This simplifies code using esxUtil_ParseDatastorePath, because directoryAndFileName is used more often than fileName. Also the old approach expected the datastore path to reference an actual file, but this isn't always correct, especially when listing volumes. In that case esxUtil_ParseDatastorePath is used to parse a path that references a directory. This fails for a vpx:// connection because the vCenter returns directory paths with a trailing '/'. The new approach is robust against this and the actual decision if the datastore path should reference a file or a directory is up to the caller of esxUtil_ParseDatastorePath. Update the tests accordingly.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
