Windows Hypervisor Platform (WHPX) is the Windows counterpart to HVF and
KVM. It's an operating system provided component that provides
virtualization acceleration support.
This is kind of the missing counterpart to https://github.com/hashicorp/packer/pull/6193.
QEMU 2.12 also added support for WHPX.
There's no support for libvirt on Windows so nothing was added in those
areas.
The popular QEMU for Windows distribution does not have WHPX support
built-in for legal reasons as the maintainer does not wish to use or
obtain any part of Microsoft's SDK to compile the distribution.
this regroups the calls of tmp func calls into one package.
the tmp pkg allows to store tmp files under a common directory for easier managment

Export a configuration knob to change the disk caching setting. The
default value remains ReadWrite. This seems the most appropriate value
given Packer. Certain disk sizes require that disk caching be disable,
and this knob allows the user to do just that.

In general, a list of items should have a space after each comma.
While there are editorial styles that suggest commas inside quotations,
they're horrible advice when the backticks are describing specific
character for a user to enter.
