On newer ESXI-8x versions, the diskless vCLS machines in an ESXI-cluster are not stored on a datastore anymore.
Instead, they are placed under `/var/run/crx` on the ESXI-hosts' filesystem. This can lead to issues with the ESXI-storage not being activated on the PVE-side [0]. This commit prevents these machines from being included in `manifest.json`. It also excludes VMs without a datastore string in its configuration.
