Currently the service runs in background on boot even though it is not
needed and once it is running it never stops. The service needs to be
running only during freeze operation and it should be stopped after
executing thaw.

Tracked down with an ugly, brittle and probably buggy Perl script.
Also move includes converted to <...> up so they get included before
ours where that's obviously okay.

requester.h relied on qemu/compiler.h definitions to
handle GCC_FMT_ATTR() stub, but this include was removed as part
of scripted clean-ups via 30456d5:
all: Clean up includes
under the assumption that all C files would have included it via
qemu/osdep.h at that point. requester.cpp was likely missed
due to C++ files requiring manual/special handling as well as
VSS build options needing to be enabled to trigger build failures.
Fix this by including qemu/osdep.h. That in turn pulls in a
macro from qapi/error.h that conflicts with a struct field name
in requester.h, so fix that as well by renaming the field.
While we're at it, fix up provider.cpp/install.cpp to include
osdep.h as well.

In mingw64-headers-3.1.0, definition of _com_issue_error() is added, which
conflicts with definition in install.cpp. This adds version checking for
mingw headers to disable the definition when the headers>=3.1 is used.

Currently, qemu-ga for Windows fails to execute guset-fsfreeze-freeze when
no user is logging in to Windows, with an error message:
{"error":{"class":"GenericError",
"desc":"failed to add C:\\ to snapshotset: (error: 8004230f)"}}
To enable guest-fsfreeze-freeze/thaw without logging in users, this installs
a service to execute qemu-ga VSS provider COM+ application that has full
access privileges to the local system. The service will automatically be
removed when the COM+ application is deregistered.
This patch replaces ICOMAdminCatalog interface with ICOMAdminCatalog2
interface that contains CreateServiceForApplication() method in addition.

Adds VSS provider and requester as a qga-vss.dll, which is loaded by
Windows VSS service as well as by qemu-ga.
"provider.cpp" implements a basic stub of a software VSS provider.
Currently, this module only relays a frozen event from VSS service to the
agent, and thaw event from the agent to VSS service, to block VSS process
to keep the system frozen while snapshots are taken at the host.
To register the provider to the guest system as COM+ application, the type
library (.tlb) for qga-vss.dll is required. To build it from COM IDL (.idl),
VisualC++, MIDL and stdole2.tlb in Windows SDK are required. This patch also
adds pre-compiled .tlb file in the repository in order to enable
cross-compile qemu-ga.exe for Windows with VSS support.
"requester.cpp" provides the VSS requester to kick the VSS snapshot process.
Qemu-ga.exe works without the DLL, although fsfreeze features are disabled.
These functions are only supported in Windows 2003 or later. In older
systems, fsfreeze features are disabled.
In several versions of Windows which don't support attribute
VSS_VOLSNAP_ATTR_NO_AUTORECOVERY, DoSnapshotSet fails with error
VSS_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND. In this patch, we just ignore this error.
To solve this fundamentally, we need a framework to handle mount writable
snapshot on guests, which is required by VSS auto-recovery feature
(cleanup phase after a snapshot is taken).
