QEMU package

Description
Currently, the qemu-guest-agent can be installed from the console. It works fine.

It would be more convenient to have it as a package that can be installed/configured from the GUI.

I really would like to see that too. for now I am using a script from GitHub but it would be more secure if it is available via GUI. Also Proxmox etc. seems to stay with us.

A package would also eliminate a lot of the script creation and general "hackery" needed to get the QEMU guest agent working. Should be fairly easy to roll this into a package available in the UI.

Tested this on 24.11-RELEASE. You still need to use ShellCMD to start the service and add the following to /etc/rc.conf.local:
qemu_guest_agent_enable="YES"
qemu_guest_agent_flags="-d -v -l /var/log/qemu-ga.log"
