Title:
  VMware: Can't use the datastore under Folder / Datastore Cluster

Status in OpenStack Glance backend store-drivers library (glance_store):
  In Progress

Bug description:
  We should support the datastore under Folder / Datastore Cluster.
  It is a common usage to use Folder / Datastore Cluster under a DataCenter.
  Currently, only support storing glance images on the datastore under top of datacenter path.
  ---Current---
  Inventory Path: /${vmware_datacenter_path}/${vmware_datastore_name}/
  -------------

  Supporting Folder / Datastore Cluster improves datastore management (Default: None).
  ---After---
  Inventory Path: /${vmware_datacenter_path}/${vmware_folder_path}/${vmware_datastore_name}/
  -----------

  To realize it, we should add valiable on glance-api.conf
  ---glance-api.conf---
  ...

  # Inventory path to a datacenter (string value)
  # Value optional when vmware_server_ip is an ESX/ESXi host: if specified
  # should be `ha-datacenter`.
  vmware_datacenter_path = DC1

  + # Folder / Datastore Cluster path (string value)
  + # Optional value: Default None
  + vmware_folder_path = openstack

  # Datastore associated with the datacenter (string value)
  vmware_datastore_name = datastore01

  ...

  ---------------------
  Add "+" bullet lines.

  Add "vmware_folder_path" valiable and define default value as "None".
