Operate the vApp

The Vapp class includes methods that perform operations on the vApp. The majority of these operations return
a Task object that tracks the progress of the operation. HellovCloud.java uses a number of these methods to
cycle the vApp through the following states:
1 deploy: deploy()
2 power on: powerOn()
3 suspend: suspend()
4 power off: powerOff()
5 undeploy: undeploy()
6 delete: delete()
