mingw-glib uses helper process to assist gspawn() api. There are two
versions of helpers, one with main() and another with WinMain() startup
routines.
Whenever gspawn() detects consoleless environment (and qemu-ga is running
in such environment as Win32 service), it chooses helper with main()
instead of WinMain. It is done by name, e.g.
gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe vs gspawn-win32-helper.exe
Running console-aware application like any win32 console apps from main()
crt initalized process results in redirection of stdout to console created
in crt startup instead of parent-provided handle connected to subprocess
pipe. Thus, stdout/stderr redirection do not work correctly.
The patch makes WinMain()'s version of helper be used as the only helper
shipped with qemu-ga package. Using only win32 helper ensures console
is created before any redirection and fixes stdout/stderr redirection
issue.

With automatically generated GUID, on minor version changes, an error
occurred, stating that there is a problem with the installer.
Now, a notification is shown, warning the user that another version of
this product is already installed, and that configuration or removal of
the existing version is possible through Add/Remove Programs on the
Control Panel (expected behavior).

With previous commit we added gspawn-win64-helper-console.exe,
required for gspawn() mingw implementation.
Unfortunatly when running as a service without interactive
desktop, gspawn() also requires another helper app.
Added gspawn-win64-helper.exe and gspawn-win32-helper.exe
for corresponding architectures.

This helper, gspawn-win64-helper-console.exe for 64-bit and
gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe for 32-bit environment,
is needed for gspawn() mingw implementation, used by guest-exec command.
Without these files guest-exec command on Windows will not
work with "file not found" diagnostic message.

Previously, if building out-of-tree, the MSI build would fail since
it wasn't able to find the needed files.

Previously, running the .msi would unregister the QEMU GA VSS service if QEMU GA was already installed on the machine, and then register it only if QEMU GA was NOT previously installed. This behavior caused the service to be registered only after the INITIAL installation, and any subsequent run of the .msi (to redo, repair, or upgrade the installation) ended in the service being unregistered.
Now, the VSS service is still unregistered if QEMU GA is already installed (so that a fix or an update could be performed) but then it is registered again (if the GA is not being uninstalled) thus finishing the repair/upgrade correctly. Additionally, downgrading is now prevented. If a user would like to downgrade a version, he/she must uninstall the newer version first.
