[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/1] qga-win: fix installation on localized windows

[Daniel Rempel <daniel@daynix.com>]

Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1357789
Replace hardcoded user and group names ("Administrators", "SYSTEM") with the ones acquired from system. Windows uses localized strings for these names and it may cause the installation to fail.
Windows has Well-known SIDs for "Administrators" group and "SYSTEM" user so they were used to identify required users and groups.
Well-known SIDs: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/243330/well-known-security-identifiers-in-windows-operating-systems
