* Change ESXi port naming to be stable

Currently every time discovery runs against ESXi, the port names change generating a lot of log spam.

This is because ESXi uses this as the ifDescr:
```Device vmnic1000202 at 01:00.0 nmlx4_en```

The poller parses this, and extracts the interface name, whereas discovery does not, causing the interface names to flip every 6 hours.
https://github.com/librenms/librenms/blob/22.10.0/includes/polling/ports.inc.php#L578-L580

This change gives the discovery process the same behaviour, so the naming is now stable.

* Try to fix test data with a squash

* vcsa test data

* Synthesise VCSA ifName, use it in place of ifDescr

* Refresh test data

* Update ports.inc.php
