Extend govc functionality with RegisterLdap, UpdateLdap and UpdateLdapAuthnType methods

[abonat]

As an Ansible developer, I want Ansible modules to read/update the state when doing vCenter's LDAP SSO identity provider source configuration. The Ansible module can use govc and should read, update, confirm the operation when updates.

So:
Need to in the proper way

Looking into the details (the solution):

The structures like:

• RegisterLdapRequestType,
• RegisterLdapResponse,
• SsoAdminIdentitySourceManagementServiceAuthenticationCredentails
• UpdateLdapRequestType,
• UpdateLdapAuthnTypeRequestType,
• UpdateLdapAuthnTypeResponse

do not exist in govmomi - https://github.com/vmware/govmomi/blob/master/ssoadmin/types/types.go

The methods like:

• RegisterLdap
• UpdateLdap
• UpdateLdapAuthnType

are undefined - https://github.com/vmware/govmomi/blob/master/ssoadmin/methods/methods.go

The methods are missing from ssoadmin client - https://github.com/vmware/govmomi/blob/master/ssoadmin/client.go

Currently there is only sso/idp/ls.go which lists SSO identity provider sources and read their details.

So my 'Charles' tool said the current Powershell implementation of the same does it with these soap methods.
And this web debugging proxy also shows the structures of the requests.

An then can define the missing code here, so:
I achieved:
