The vmware_deploy_ovf module has vApp properties support this should also

[alice-rc]

So this module should have the same parameters as the related community.vmware.vmware_deploy_ovf module. It is currently missing:

• allow_duplicates
• deployment_option
• fail_on_spec_warnings
• inject_ovf_env
• networks
• power_on
• properties
• wait
• wait_for_ip_address

Why are those options unavailable?
