cdsmcp: add direct ESX VM hardware workflow guide

Add a dedicated ESX VM guide for read-first hardware change workflows,
including disk creation, datastore VMDK attachment, and PCI passthrough
assignment.

Update the existing lookup/assignment runbook and top-level docs to
reference the new guide and require explicit reporting of VM name
mismatches and missing datastore directories before any change.

## Source Of Truth
- Use `docs/vmware-migrateops-guide.md` for how to execute VMware compute migration runs.
- Use `docs/esxvm-guide.md` for direct vCenter VM hardware changes such as new disks, existing-disk attach, and PCI passthrough assignment.
- Use `docs/vm-lookup-and-assignment.md` for VM lookup responses and FC/disk assignment requests.
- Use `docs/cmc-install-reference.md` for CMC install/uninstall commands and fallback reinstall notes.
- Use `templates/vmw.yaml` as the starting operation template.
