Vipin Balachandran 084f547583 Exception hierarchy refactoring 
There are two roots for the current exception hierarchy: VimException
and VMwareDriverException, which is not a good design. This patch
refactors the exception hierarchy to fix this problem.

Summary of changes:
* Change parent of VimException to VMwareDriverException
* Change parent of exceptions corresponding to known VIM faults
  to VimException
* Change parent of VimSessionOverLoadException, VimConnectionException,
  VimAttributeException and ImageTransferException to
  VMwareDriverException.

The guidelines followed for this refactoring are:
* The changes in existing driver code should be NIL.

* The changes in other parts of the library should be minimal.

* Any exception raised by invocation of vim APIs should be a VimException
  and any exception raised by pbm APIs should be a PbmException. But this
  will result in lot of changes in the library as well as existing clients.
  Therefore, we  define a single root for these two types of exceptions which
  is labeled as VimException.

* Any exception raised by the library should be a child of
  VMwareDriverException. Therefore, VimException, VimSessionOverLoadException,
  VimConnectionException, VimAttributeException and ImageTransferException
  are children of VMwareDriverException. Ideally, VMwareDriverException
  should be renamed as ServiceException, but it will result in backward
  incompatibility.
