> h2. Introduction
> It is desired to support nested virtualization at VM level for VMware
> hypervisor. Current behaviour supports enabling/desabling global nested
> virtualization by modifying global config {{'vmware.nested.virtualization'}}.
> It is wished to improve this feature, having control at VM level instead of a
> global control only.
> h2. Proposal
> A new global configuration is added, to enable/disable VM nested
> virtualization control: {{'vmware.nested.virtualization.perVM'}}. Default
> value=false
> h2. Behaviour
> After a vm deployment or start command, vm params include
> {{nestedVirtualizationFlag}} key and its value is:
> * true -> nested virtualization enabled
> * false -> nested virtualization disabled
> We will determinate nested virtualization enabled/disabled by examining:
> * (1) global configuration {{'vmware.nested.virtualization'}} value
> * (2) global configuration {{'vmware.nested.virtualization.perVM'}} value
> * (3) {{'nestedVirtualizationFlag'}} value in {{user_vm_details}} if present,
> null if not.
> Using this 3 values, there are different use cases:
> # (1) = TRUE, (2) = TRUE, (3) is null -> ENABLED
> # (1) = TRUE, (2) = TRUE, (3) = TRUE -> ENABLED
> # (1) = TRUE, (2) = TRUE, (3) = FALSE -> DISABLED
> # (1) = TRUE, (2) = FALSE -> ENABLED
> # (1) = FALSE, (2) = TRUE, (3) is null -> DISABLED
> # (1) = FALSE, (2) = TRUE, (3) = TRUE -> ENABLED
> # (1) = FALSE, (2) = TRUE, (3) = FALSE -> DISABLED
> # (1) = FALSE, (2) = FALSE -> DISABLED
