Perform steps required before migrating a VM group.

For each VM group, the following three high level steps are performed in sequence.
1. Call pre VM group migrate API.
2. Migrate (by vmotion,in place, etc.,) VMs in the VM group. This step will be done by user independent of MC.
3. Call post VM group migrate API with the same VM group id used in the pre VM group migrate API.
This API specifically deals with pre VM group migrate API. When pre VM group migrate API is invoked for a VM group
id, MC performs following actions.
- Checks segmentation realization state.
- Creates segment ports.
- Creates temporary security groups.
