resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2167423
fixes: CVE-2023-0664 (2 parts)

CVE Technical details: The cached installer for QEMU Guest Agent in c:\windows\installer
(https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/qga/installer/qemu-ga.wxs),
can be leveraged to begin a repair of the installation without validation
that the repair is being performed by an administrative user. The MSI repair
custom action "RegisterCom" and "UnregisterCom" is not set for impersonation
which allows for the actions to occur as the SYSTEM account
(LINE 137 AND 145 of qemu-ga.wxs). The custom action also leverages cmd.exe
to run qemu-ga.exe in line 134 and 142 which causes an interactive command
shell to spawn even though the MSI is set to be non-interactive on line 53.
