    Update docs for serial console support
    
    There are two changes here:
    
    1. The serial_console config option group help text is
       updated to point out that hyper-v also supports serial
       console access. This is based on virt drivers that
       implement the 'get_serial_console' method.
    
    2. The hypervisor feature matrix is updated to point out
       that the vmware driver does not support getting serial
       console output. This is based on virt drivers that
       implement the 'get_console_output' method.

Title:
  serial console support matrix and config option help is wrong

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) newton series:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/support-
  matrix.html#console_serial_log says that vmware supports getting
  serial console output, which it doesn't as it doesn't implement the
  get_console_output method in the vmware driver.

  https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/14.0.0/nova/conf/serial_console.py#L31
  says that only the libvirt driver supports serial console access, but
  hyper-v does also since it implements the get_serial_console virt
  driver method.
