Description
Allow the adding of tags to templates within vsphere/esxi like available within terraform.
Use Case(s)
Allows adding tags to templates so you can add information about the template for example build date, OS version, roles, build version, builder etc So information on the template can be extracted instead of needing to encode as much of this in the template name or external database.
