vsphere_virtual_machine portgroup lookup by key returned nil result for DVS UUID

[Koleon]

Hey there,
regarding issue #456 I compiled terraform-provider-vsphere with golang 1.10.1 against the branch in the PR #471 and thanks to @vancluever I got DVS UUID and portgroup. Unfortunately the deploy failed again. I still wonder how come it's deployable via different distro.

Terraform Version

$ tf -v
Terraform v0.11.7
+ provider.vsphere (unversioned)

vSphere Provider Version

$ tf providers
.
├── provider.terraform
└── provider.vsphere

Affected Resource(s)

Please list the resources as a list, for example:

• vsphere_virtual_machine

Terraform Configuration Files

Please see previous issue #456

Expected Behavior

Deploy without problem.

Actual Behavior

$ tf apply

Error: Error applying plan:

2 error(s) occurred:

When I run terraform destory

$ tf destroy
