Support swap disk in VMware driver

Registered by Thang Pham

Add support for specifying swap device in flavor definition or block device mappings for VMware driver. This is a simple feature to add to VMware that is nearly identical to the libvirt driver, i.e. one swap disk created based on an instance's flavor or block device mapping.
