hw/i386/vmport: Introduce vmware-vmx-version property
vmware-vmx-version is a number returned from CMD_GETVERSION which specifies
to guest VMware Tools the the host VMX version. If the host reports a number
that is different than what the guest VMware Tools expects, it may force
guest to upgrade VMware Tools. (See comment above VERSION_MAGIC and
VmCheck_IsVirtualWorld() function in open-vm-tools open-source code).
For better readability and allow maintaining compatability for guests
which may expect different vmware-vmx-version, make vmware-vmx-version a
VMPort object property. This would allow user to control it's value via
"-global vmport.vmware-vmx-version=X".
