vmx: Relax virtualHW.version check
The original implementation of the VMX config parser assumed that the
virtualHW.version would have more influence on the content of the VMX
file than it actually seems to have. It started with accepting only
version 4. Additonal versions were added later without any additional
changes in the parser itself. This suggests that the influence of the
virtualHW.version on the content and format of the VMX file is small
or non-existent.
The parser worked without any changes across several virtualHW and
vSphere versions. So instead of adding new virtualHW.version values to
the parser as they come along, or adding an extra flag to allow unknown
virtualHW.version values just relax the check to require version 4 or
later.
I can reproduced the bug with build:
libvirt-0.10.2-56.el6.x86_64
Try to verfiy the bug with build:
libvirt-0.10.2-57.el6.x86_64
Steps:
1.Prepare a VM from an esx host that has hardware version 11.
2.Use virsh to connect the esx host.
# virsh -c esx://10.66.144.40/?no_verify=1
Enter username for 10.66.144.40 [root]:
Enter root's password for 10.66.144.40:
Welcome to virsh, the virtualization interactive terminal.

- rhel5.11-mxie shut off
- rhel6.7-mxie shut off
- test-juzhou shut off
- test-rhel6u6-x64 shut off
3.Use virsh dumpxml to get the xml of the vm with virtualHW.version 11.
virsh # dumpxml test-rhel6u6-x64
