Powershell helper script now returns error when guest IP address
cannot be discovered. When reading addresses from a network
device both IPv4 and IPv6 are stored and the IPv4 address has
precedence on returned address.

It was failing to create files below the machines\default\hyperv folder, rather it was creating folders named 'hypervSnapshots', 'hypervVirtual Hard Disks', and 'hypervVirtual Machines'. This was causing the files to not be removed when destroying the vm, and an error when subsequently bringing it up again.
Implemented the differencing disk for vmcx.
This means the disk is now copied by Hyper-V (Powershell) instead of Ruby for new machines.
This does mean EFI Firmware now does work for machines since it is quite a feep copy. Compare-VM will report incompatibilities should they be found.
Use the version of Hyper-V instead of Powershell to determine which
exception is thrown by Get-VM. Also fixing an invalid catch statement,
since Powershell can not use variables to match thrown exceptions in
catch.
