Description of problem:
Try to cold migrate VM with luks encrypted devices with skipGuestConversion: true, failed with error below:
"ServerFaultCode: Cannot complete operation because VMware Tools is not running in this virtual machine"
To let the VMware Tools running, user need to input the encrypted password to start the VM, but when user use skipGuestConversion, normally they don't know the VM encrypted password, then they can't migrate the VM.
For luks VM with skipGuestConversion: true, we should let user migrate VM without running VMware Tools
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Tested on MTV 2.9.1 (IIB: forklift-fbc-prod-v419:on-pr-60bf637c9083d00904a7d4e711769480ea594756) with CNV 4.19.3
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1) Try to cold migrate VM: mtv-func-rhel9-luks-test from vCenter 7 to OCP cluster with skipGuestConversion: true, the plan failed with message: "ServerFaultCode: Cannot complete operation because VMware Tools is not running in this virtual machine".
For luks VM with skipGuestConversion: true, we should let user migrate VM without running VMware Tools

Actual results:
In step1: The VM migration is blocked
Expected results:
In step1: Migrate VM successfully
