guestfs-tools 1.49.9 contains a new tool called 'virt-drivers' which
has this functionality extracted from virt-v2v. It's Linux only at
the moment (like virt-v2v). Implementing this for Windows is TBD.
The virt-drivers tool supports listing Windows drivers starting with
1.49.10, so for example you can use this to tell if a Windows guest
has virtio drivers (or VMware drivers) suitable for the target
hypervisor.
