Reviving Gentoo VMware support

Sadly over the last months the support for VMware Workstation and friends in Gentoo dropped a lot. Why? Well, I was the only developer left who cared, and it's definitely not at the top of my Gentoo priorities list. To be honest that has not really changed. However... let's try to harness the power of the community now.

I've pushed a mirror of the Gentoo vmware overlay to Github, see

If you have improvements, version bumps, ... - feel free to generate pull requests. Everything related to VMware products is acceptable. I hope some more people will over time sign up and help merging. Just be careful when using the overlay, it likely won't get the same level of review as ebuilds in the main tree.
