If both the Perl based Linux customization script and cloud-init run when the guest VM boots, the deployPkg plugin may reboot the guest before cloud-init has finished. The deployPkg plugin has been updated to wait for a running cloud-init process to finish before the guest VM reboot is initiated.

The network script has been updated to: use vmware-toolbox-cmd to query any network logging configuration from the tools.conf file. Use vmtoolsd --cmd \"log ...\" to log a message to the vmx logfile when the logging handler is configured to \"vmx\" or when the logfile is full or is not writeable. - The hgfsmounter (mount.vmhgfs) command has been removed from open-vm-tools.
