Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:
On running the hardware compatibility checks on host within a vSAN cluster, the devices, which would be part of the HCL result and in use by vSAN would no longer be annotated with the annotation in the UI which states "vSAN managed". In the previous releases, when a device is in use by vSAN, we used to have a annotation in the UI that annotated that the specific device is in use by vSAN. The same behavior would apply for the API result as well, where the "used_by_vsan" field would now be set to false, even though the device is in use by vSAN.
