Re: [Libguestfs] [v2v PATCH 12/12] convert_windows: install "v2vnetcf.ps1" with prio 2500

The windows converter installs the firstboot scripts in this order: do_convert configure_firstboot configure_wait_pnp add_firstboot_script configure_vmdp add_firstboot_script configure_qemu_ga add_firstboot_script unconfigure_xenpv add_firstboot_script unconfigure_prltools add_firstboot_script unconfigure_vmwaretools add_firstboot_script configure_network_interfaces install_firstboot_powershell "v2vnetcf.ps1" add_firstboot_script -> the script that polls for "netkvm.sys" with Get-NetAdapter, then calls New-NetIPAddress Because of this, if the guest is supposed to have static IP address(es), they are set by the "v2vnetcf.ps1" firstboot script quite late during first boot. It's more comfortable for users if the network is usable from an earlier point of the first boot, so register "v2vnetcf.ps1" in priority group 2500 (the default is 5000), moving the script to the front.
