This commit adds automatic UAC elevation prompts for HyperV machine
init/rm actions when administrator privileges are required.
Previously, users had to manually run Podman as administrator
when creating the first machine or removing the last machine, which
requires Windows Registry modifications.
When the HyperV command gets relaunched as elevated, the error of the
elevated process is saved on a file to be displayed by the caller. The
implementation is the same as that used by WSL.

Previously, each new HyperV Podman machine required creating new hvsock
registry entries, necessitating administrator privileges.
This change modifies the HyperV provider to reuse existing hvsock
entries if found. This is possible due to Podman's current
limitation of running only one HyperV machine at a time.
As a result, administrator privileges are only needed for the first initial
machine setup (when the registry is empty). Subsequent machines can be created by users in the
"Hyper-V Administrators" group without being Admin.
Hvsock entries are no longer deleted on each machine removal; cleanup
is handled when the last machine gets removed.

this commit moves the HasAdminRights func from the wsl package to a generic windows package as this could also be used by the HyperV provider.
