Python < 2.7.9 does not have the ssl.SSLContext attribute.
ssl.SSLContext is only required when we want to validate the SSL
connection. If `validate_certs` is false, we don't initialize the
`ssl_context` variable.
Add unit-test coverage and a little refactoring:
- avoid the use of `mocker`, when we can push `monkeypatch` which is
`pytest`'s default.
- use `mock.Mocker()` when possible
closes: #57072
This commit allows users to access a vCenter or a ESXi through a
HTTP CONNECT based proxy.
To do so, the users have to set the `proxy_host` and `proxy_port`
variables.
The can also use the `VMWARE_PROXY_HOST` and `VMWARE_PROXY_PORT`
environment variables.
This feature depends on pyvmomi > v6.7.1.2018.12.

Ensure the module still work with the ESXi where CustomFieldsManager
does not exist.
From: https://www.vmware.com/support/developer/converter-sdk/conv60_apireference/vim.CustomFieldsManager.html
The CustomFieldsManager object is used to add and remove custom fields to
managed entities.
The custom fields values set on managed entities are available through the
customValue property and through the summary objects for VirtualMachine
and HostSystem. They are not available directly through this managed object.
This functionality is only available through VirtualCenter.
Fixes: #56071
* VMware: Fix module usages in module_utils
* Skip test for Python 2.6 as SSL context is not available in Python 2.6
