What this PR does / why we need it
VMware's SCSI controller supports adding virtual disks to a running VM without rebooting, this is "HotAdd." The HotAdd transport exploits this: instead of streaming disk data over the network (NBD), you literally attach the source VM's disk to a proxy VM as a second disk and read it locally.
