For Windows guests, the "inspect.i_arch" field is
ultimately determined in
libguestfs, on the following call path:
inspect_os [daemon/inspect.ml]
check_for_filesystem_on [daemon/inspect_fs.ml]
check_filesystem [daemon/inspect_fs.ml]
check_windows_root [daemon/inspect_fs_windows.ml]
check_windows_arch [daemon/inspect_fs_windows.ml]
file_architecture [daemon/filearch.ml]
file_architecture_of_magic [daemon/filearch.ml]
where the last function maps "PE32 executable" to "i386".
(As of libguestfs commit 5858c2cf6c24.)
However, in osinfo-db (as of commit 72c69622e6db), the
"data/schema/osinfo.rng.in" schema calls the same architecture
"i686".
Perform this mapping in the "copy_from_libosinfo" function explicitly: the
filter currently throws away all "i686" drivers from libosinfo because
they don't match "i386" from libguestfs.
(There is no such problem with "x86_64".)

Sort of the reverse of Std_utils.normalize_arch, but I understand why
it's being done here. (I wonder if we want to call it
"libosinfo_arch" to avoid confusion?) Anyway, ACK
