Subject: [PATCH] provider/vsphere: Exposing moid value from vm resource
 (#14793)

moid value is needed by NSX resources, like security tag, when we attached security tags to a VMs, so needed before we commit NSX provider.

* fixing gofmt issue

* Updating docs regarding new exported moid attribute.
