Merge pull request #139 from lgatellier/feat/variable-vmrpid

Handle new vmrpid variable - 

Add new vmrpid variable to allow users to provide a resource pool id instead of a resource pool path.
This can be used, for exemple, to link the vSphere VM to a vsphere_vapp_container also managed by terraform.
