Description of problem:
Sometimes we see VMs fail to power on when the land on a host that does not have enough resources. The current power on does not retry or leverage DRS to power on the node on a suitable host.
https://github.com/vmware/govmomi/issues/1026
Our code is still making calls to PowerOnVM_Task which, according to the vsphere docs, is deprecated and we should use PowerOnMultiVM_Task instead.
PowerOnVM_Task does not return a DRS ClusterRecommendation, no vmotion nor host power operations will be done as part of a DRS-facilitated power on. To have DRS consider such operations use PowerOnMultiVM_Task.

As of vSphere API 5.1, use of this method with vCenter Server is deprecated; use PowerOnMultiVM_Task instead.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Expected results:
PowerOn should use DRS to ensure it's always successful.
