Description of problem:
[RFE]Virt-v2v can convert guests from VMware aVpp
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-v2v-2.0.2-1.el9.x86_64
libguestfs-1.48.0-2.el9.x86_64
guestfs-tools-1.48.0-1.el9.x86_64
libvirt-libs-8.2.0-1.el9.x86_64
qemu-img-6.2.0-12.el9.x86_64
nbdkit-server-1.30.2-1.el9.x86_64
libnbd-1.12.2-1.el9.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a vApp for ESXi6.7 host on vsphere client
2. Create a VM under vApp, pls refer to screenshot 'vmware-vapp'
3. Convert the guest from VMware vApp by v2v via vddk
- virt-v2v -ic vpx://root@10.73.73.141/data/10.73.75.219/vapp-m/?no_verify=1 -it vddk -io vddk-libdir=/home/vddk7.0.3 -io vddk-thumbprint=1F:97:34:5F:B6:C2:BA:66:46:CB:1A:71:76:7D:6B:50:1E:03:00:EA rhel8.5-app -ip /home/passwd

4.Convert the guest from VMware vApp by v2v without vddk
- virt-v2v -ic vpx://root@10.73.73.141/data/10.73.75.219/vapp-m/?no_verify=1 rhel8.5-app -ip /home/passwd

Try running qemu directly without libvirt using this environment variable:
export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct

[ 10.3] Opening the source
nbdkit: ssh[1]: error: all possible authentication methods failed
virt-v2v: error: libguestfs error: guestfs_launch failed.
This usually means the libguestfs appliance failed to start or crashed.
Do:
export LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1
and run the command again. For further information, read:
http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-faq.1.html#debugging-libguestfs
You can also run 'libguestfs-test-tool' and post the complete output
into a bug report or message to the libguestfs mailing list.
If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the
complete output:
virt-v2v -v -x [...]
Expected results:
