Catalog: specify site
Hi there,

Feature Request
Originally opened this here (https://github.com/vmware/go-vcloud-director/issues/187), copy-pasting info:
To attach a media to a VM, the media's catalog and the VM's DC need to be on the same site. (So I'm told).
In the GUI (at least the Flash UI) I can specify this. I haven't found it in this provider.
@lroellin, please elaborate. Could you be more specific what you specify in UI? screenshots would help.
Actually, I've since changed teams and I'm not responsible for the project anymore.
When creating a catalog, I can specify that it needs to be on a specific site. I can then specify what vDC the catalog should be "sitting in".
The problem is, that at least in our installation, a media cannot be mounted on a vApp VM, if the vApp VM and the catalog in which this media lies are not in the same site.
I therefore wanted to have an extra property on the 'catalog' resource where I could specify this "backing vDC".
I think this is about specifying storage policies and our vcd_catalog resource supports it starting with v3.1.0 -> https://registry.terraform.io/providers/vmware/vcd/latest/docs/resources/catalog#storage_profile_id
