      Providing more resolution modes for windows VM

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      qemu-kvm-9.0.0-8.el9.x86_64

      How reproducible:

      100%

      Steps to reproduce

      1.Boot a windows 10 VM with seabios + q35 + vga(64MB vram)
      2.Inside the VM, check the resolution modes available for selection

      Expected results

      For modern windows desktop usage, perhaps we also need UHD(3840x2160) and QHD(2560x1440) for availability

       

      Actual result

      After 2, the modes available are:
      1920 x 1200
      1920 x 1080
      1680 x 1050
      1600 x 1200
      1440 x 900
      1280 x 1024
      1280 x 960
      1024 x 768
      800 x 600
