[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 0/3] qemu-ga: add guest-get-osinfo command

["Tomáš Golembiovský" <tgolembi@redhat.com>]

v6:
- fixed the documentation comment in schema
- disguising os-release as key-value file (thanks Marc-André)
- dropped dependency on gio
- improved error handling
- added test

v5:
- fixed build failure with older glib
- fixed coding style issues
- fixed one log string

This is a continuation of the work started by Vinzenz Feenstra in the
threads:

The idea is to report some basic information from uname and from
os-release file, if it is present. On MS Windows, where neither uname
nor os-release exist we fill the values based on the information we can
get from the OS.

The example output on Fedora is:

{
  "return": {
    "kernel-version": "#1 SMP Mon May 8 18:46:06 UTC 2017",
    "kernel-release": "4.10.15-200.fc25.x86_64",
    "machine-hardware": "x86_64",
    "id": "fedora",
    "name": "Fedora",
    "pretty-name": "Fedora 25 (Server Edition)",
    "version": "25 (Server Edition)",
    "variant": "Server Edition",
    "version-id": "25",
    "variant-id": "server"
  }
}

The example output on MS Windows 10 is:

{
  "return": {
    "kernel-version": "10.0",
    "kernel-release": "10240",
    "machine-hardware": "x86_64",
    "id": "mswindows",
    "name": "Microsoft Windows",
    "pretty-name": "Windows 10 Enterprise",
    "version": "Microsoft Windows 10",
    "version-id": "10",
    "variant": "client",
    "variant-id": "client"
  }
}
