wsl2: vhd/vhdx exts; more wsl2 kernel stuff

• linux-wsl2-x86-edge.config: enable moar Hyper-V stuff & console as builtin
• extensions: image-output-vhd renamed to image-output-vhd-azure
  • only Azure wants the static, 1024-aligned original VHD images (and doesnt support VHDX?)
  • new VHDX output format (for generic Hyper-V on Windows 10/11/2019/etc)
• extensions: image-output-vhdx: add output for dynamic .vhdx (in a zip file, to avoid sparseness errors)
  • new VHDX output format (for generic Hyper-V on Windows 10/11/2019/etc)
  • it is always stored (no compression) in a .zip file, to avoid sparseness errors
  • when building, transfer the .zip file over to Windows, and uncompress it there (not on WSL2 itself/Linux/other machine)
• wsl2: enable image-output-vhdx for all wsl2 images (this enables wsl2 images to be run directly on Hyper-V)
  • future work: export the rootfs .tar.gz, that can be used on WSL2 as a Custom Distro
