Add E2E tests for vSphere VM-Host zonal affinity

This change introduces comprehensive E2E tests for the vSphere VM-Host
zonal topology feature. The tests validate that VMs are correctly placed
in their designated VM groups based on failure domain configuration,
verify that VM-Host affinity rules are properly configured and enforced
between VM groups and host groups, ensure the Machine API respects zonal
constraints during provisioning and scaling operations, and check that
the cluster has proper zone failure resilience configuration with nodes
distributed across multiple zones. The tests include appropriate skipping
logic for failure domains that don't have HostGroup ZoneAffinity configured.
