Mike Stunes c2da8a8372 Fixed Py3 serializer bug
Some pyVmomi types present themselves as string types (i.e.,
isinstance(val, str) == True), but those objects shadow certain string
methods that the serializer relies on. Thus, serializing these objects
fails. This change causes the serializer to convert those objects to
their string representation before serializing.

A test case is included; this test fails on Py3 without the change in
question, and passes with it.
