qemu supports sending commands to qemu-ga. libvirt abstracts the qemu api
for these commands. vdsm uses the libvirt api when qemu-ga operations are
relevant. ovirt-engine asks vdsm for the operation (say, thaw/freeze during
live snaphost would be done by libvirt on qemu, send to qemu-ga).
Can the qemu-ga cmds be sent from the cmd line? are there any docs for this?

the main problems with delivering windows binaries are build machines,
licensing of tools, etc.
so there is no problem with you providing those builds if they don't happen
to be available already.
I thought you wouldn't like people distributing custom builds of
qemu-ga when you have your own official ones, that it might confuse
people.
