* Replace variable values in example task

Currently, Ansible interprets variables with a True|False value as
boolean. This causes the vmware_deploy_ovf module to break, because
it can only accept string values as properties.
This fix checks if a value is boolean, and converts it to a string
if it is. Since integers do not seem to be causing the same error, this
is the only check we appear to need.
After completion, OVF properties that are boolean can be specified as
yes|no or true|false.
Closes: #45528
When a datacenter has multiple clusters it is required to use the
cluster name to find the correct default resource pool to import
OVF images to.
Fixes issue 42644.

Some users have problems using the VMware modules because they use the
vCenter as target, and Ansible uses SSH to connect to the targets.
Eventually we need to update the VMware guide to explain how the modules
work, but the first fix is to update the examples.
(We should backport to v2.6 and v2.5 too)
* First pass at vmware_deploy_ovf functionality
* Add OVA file support, re-structure code
* Move some useful functions to module_utils.vmware, and perform a little DRY too
* Better handling of errors during spec validation and import
* Properly calculate the lease progress percentage for all vmdk files
* Make warnings and errors a little better
* Add an allow_duplicates argument, that defaults to true, to allow users to have name based idempotency
* Add fail_on_spec_warnings to cause the module to treat warnings as errors
* Support non-vmdk uploads
* Add ova alias for ovf
* Rename vmdk_post_url to device_upload_url so it does not sound to specific to VMDK files
* Safer handling of * hostname in urls
* Add default Content-Type, remove unused headers var
* Add deploymentOptions and propertyMapping functionalities
* Add basic check_mode support
* Add vmware_deploy_ovf to list of use-argspec-type-path ignores
* Update version_added and fix path for use-argspec-type-path
* Add configurable folder
* Doc changes
