VMware PowerCLI: Map datastore name to LUN devicename.

It is not obvious as it is thought to be to map datastore name to LUN devicename in native PowerCLI codes,
The  esxcli interface exposed to PowerCLI  make it very easy.(Tested in ESXi 5.0)
PowerCLI>$esxcli=get-esxcli -vmhost esx01
PowerCLI>$esxcli.storage.vmfs.extent.list() | ft devicename,volumename -autosize

DeviceName                           VolumeName
----------                           ----------
naa.600601605bc02e00007fb97cacbee211 datastore01
naa.600601605bc02e00fac8cd88acbee211 datastore02
