Joseph Callen fb3bb746b2 Resolves issue with vmware_dvs_portgroup module for v2.0
When this module was written back in May 2015 we were using 1.9.x. Being lazy I added to param the objects that the other functions would need. What I have noticed is in 2.0 exit_json is trying to jsonify those complex objects and failing. This PR resolves that issue with the vmware_dvs_portgroup module.

@kamsz reported this issue in https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/pull/1568

Playbook
```
- name: Create Management portgroup
      local_action:
        module: vmware_dvs_portgroup
        hostname: "{{ mgmt_ip_address }}"
        username: "{{ vcsa_user }}"
        password: "{{ vcsa_pass }}"
        portgroup_name: Management
        switch_name: dvSwitch
        vlan_id: "{{ hostvars[groups['foundation_esxi'][0]].mgmt_vlan_id }}"
        num_ports: 120
        portgroup_type: earlyBinding
        state: present
```
