virgl on Windows host

Summary: make virgl rendering work on Windows host

virgl enables accelerated 3d rendering in a VM. It requires Desktop GL on the host.

In theory, virgl should work on Windows with a capable host driver. This project aim at making virgl work well with various GPU on Windows. Since many Windows OpenGL drivers have bad behaviours, it would be worth to support ANGLE/opengles instead. This would require various modifications in virgl library. Additionally, it would be a good opportunity to ease the cross-compilation and packaging of qemu/virgl with msitools.
