* Set `raw=True` when reading passwords from ConfigParser files.
The assumption is that no one is actually doing interpolation on the
password value, even if they may for other configuration values, and
passwords are far more likely to contain '%'.
* Add vmware_inventory as well.
(cherry picked from commit 15b6ec66bb)
Fix adds default 'vmware' section in configuration,
when this section is not found.
Fixes: #31549

This fix changes default value of host_filter in vmware_inventory.py
and vmware_inventory.ini to 'runtime.powerstate' from 'guest.gueststate'.
This change is added as 'guest.gueststate' requires vmware tools to be
installed on given VM, which may not be the case everytime.

* Remove debug lines
* Do not attempt to sort because it's a waste
* Remove unused code
* Remove extra code
* Capture lowercase keys
use inkey attribute in _process_object_types recursive loop to generate key name in skip_keys directive.
This permit to ignore nested variables, for example summary.vm to optimize inventory collect
* vmware_inventory: permit to group by custom field
This permits to create instances, affect some custom fields like EC2 tags and then retrieve groups from custom fields like EC2 inventory
* vmware_inventory: Customize skip_keys & add resourceconfig to skip_keys
Verify if customfield is a str before processing custom fields for a host
* Fix many points reported by PyCharm as PEP 8 code style
* Improve inventory performance by dropping vim.HostSystem & vim.VirtualMachine collect when depth >= 2
