Daniel P. Berrange b1c81567c7 docs: switch to using HTML5 doctype declaration
The HTML5 doctype is simply

  <!DOCTYPE html>

no DTD is present because HTML5 is no longer defined as an
extension of SGML.

XSL has no way to natively output a doctype without a public
or system identifier, so we have to use an <xsl:text> hack
instead.

<h1>VMware Workstation / Player / Fusion hypervisors driver</h1>
<p>
The libvirt VMware driver should be able to manage any Workstation,
Player, Fusion version supported by the VMware VIX API. See the
compatibility list
<a href="http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vix-api/vix110_reference/">here</a>.
</p>
<p>
This driver uses the "vmrun" utility which is distributed with the VMware VIX API.
You can download the VIX API
from <a href="http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vix-api/">here</a>.

<h2>Connections to VMware driver</h2>
<p>
The libvirt VMware driver provides per-user drivers (the "session" instance).
Three uris are available:
</p>
<ul>
<li>"vmwareplayer" for VMware Player</li>
<li>"vmwarews" for VMware Workstation</li>
<li>"vmwarefusion" for VMware Fusion</li>
</ul>
<p>
Some example connection URIs for the driver are:
</p>
<pre>
vmwareplayer:///session (local access to VMware Player per-user instance)
vmwarews:///session (local access to VMware Workstation per-user instance)
vmwarefusion:///session (local access to VMware Fusion per-user instance)
vmwarews+tcp://user@example.com/session (remote access to VMware Workstation, SASl/Kerberos)
vmwarews+ssh://user@example.com/session (remote access to VMware Workstation, SSH tunnelled)
</pre>
