[one-users] Suggestion to update OpenNebula 3.4 documentation on VMware Drivers 3.4 [http://www.opennebula.org/documentation:rel3.4:evmwareg]

[Tino Vazquez]

Dear Anil,

I've updated the documentation with your suggestions, thanks a lot!!
They make a lot of sense.

I've also added that this is only needed for ESX < 5.0, since the ESX
that come after do not have "sudo".

Thanks again,

-Tino
