[Bug 1836361] Re: Windows guest display is inverted vertically

[Dan Streetman]

one minor correction on version numbering; you set the disco and eoan
versions to:

eoan: 0.1.7-3ubuntu1
disco: 0.1.7-3ubuntu1.19.04.1

The current version in both is 0.1.7-3, so the new eoan version is
correct, but the version numbering across releases should always be
increasing - meaning, the eoan version should be higher than the disco
version.  So to do that, I changed the disco version to:

0.1.7-3ubuntu0.19.04.1

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * When running a Windows VM using the QXL driver from [1] the display
  is inverted and therefore almost unusable.

  [Test Case]

   * Launch a Windows VM with a QXL display (I used Win2k16 running under libvirt).
   * Start websockify
       sudo apt install python3-websockify && websockify 5959 localhost:5900
   * Run a HTTP server to spice-html5:
     cd /usr/share/spice-html5 && python -m SimpleHTTPServer
   * Open a browser and go to http://localhost:8000
   * Enter
     host: localhost
     port: 5959
   * Click start

  Expected behaviour:
  Guest UI is displayed correctly.

  Actual behaviour:
  Guest UI gets inverted on refresh.

  [Regression Potential]

   * This component may be used with openstack and it's possible that
  there are workarounds in place, so they may start working incorrectly.

  [Other Info]

   * Part of this fixed is included cosmic and onwards (spice-html5
  0.1.7-3).
