Subject: [PATCH] v2v: vcenter: Calculate dcPath correctly (RHBZ#1256823).

Previously given a path such as:

  vpx://vcenter/Folder/Datacenter/esxi

we calculated dcPath=Folder.  However this is obviously wrong.  We
should chop the path at the final (esxi) element to give
dcPath=Folder/Datacenter.

(cherry picked from commit 20f1eb400b13be8733b6586769c4845b99a70722)
