daemon/Win32: Add contributed test script to test daemon using Wine.
This test script allows you to test limited features of the Windows daemon by running it on a standard Fedora host using Wine. Read contrib/README and contrib/guestfsd-in-wine.sh in detail before using.

+#----------------------------------------------------------------------
+#
+# This is a QEMU wrapper script that allows you to run a
+# Windows-compiled guestfsd.exe (daemon) under Wine from a Linux main
+# program. You need to read and understand all the instructions below
+# before use.
+#
+# To understand how to compile the daemon for Windows, please read:
+# http://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2009-November/msg00255.html
+#
+# Adjust the Wine configuration so it can find the libraries, as
+# described here:
+# http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MinGW/Configure_wine
+#
+# On Fedora 13 there is a serious bug in Wine. See:
+# https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=533806#c11
+#
+# If necessary, adjust the line 'guestfsd=...' below so it points to
+# the correct location of the guestfsd.exe program. You can use an
+# absolute path here if you want.
+guestfsd=daemon/guestfsd.exe
+#
+# This script is a QEMU wrapper. It pretends to be qemu as far as
+# libguestfs programs are concerned. Read this to understand the
+# purpose of QEMU wrappers:
+# http://libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html#qemu_wrappers
+#
+# With this script, the qemu program is not actually run. Instead we
+# pretend to be qemu, parse out the necessary parts of the long
+# command line that libguestfs passes to qemu, and run the Windows
+# daemon, under Wine, with the right command line. The Windows daemon
+# then hopefully connects back to the libguestfs socket, and as far as
+# the libguestfs program is concerned, it looks like a full appliance
+# is running.
+#
+# To use this script, you must set the environment variable
+# LIBGUESTFS_QEMU=/path/to/contrib/guestfsd-in-wine.sh (ie. the path
+# to this script).
+#
+# You can then run libguestfs test programs, and (hopefully!) they'll
+# use the Windows guestfsd.exe, simulating calls using Wine.
+#
+# For example from the top build directory:
+#
+# LIBGUESTFS_QEMU=contrib/guestfsd-in-wine.sh fish/guestfish
+#
+# You might also need to set the environment variable LIBGUESTFS_PATH
+# to point to an appliance. The appliance will never be used, but
+# libguestfs needs to find one.
+#
+# Another suggested environment variable is LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 which
+# will give you must more detail about what is going on. Also look at
+# the contents of the log file 'guestfsd-in-wine.log' after each run.
+#
+#----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+# Note that stdout & stderr messages will get eaten by libguestfs
+# early on in the process. Therefore write log messages to
+# a log file.
