This fix changes default value of host_filter in vmware_inventory.py
and vmware_inventory.ini to 'runtime.powerstate' from 'guest.gueststate'.
This change is added as 'guest.gueststate' requires vmware tools to be
installed on given VM, which may not be the case everytime.

cache_path is used to calculate cache_dir , the script doesn't actually read cache_dir from this file.
This makes the setting work (otherwise it always uses the default).
