[virt-tools-list] virt-what: virt-what should not report systems running in a WSL environment as hyperv

I installed Debian in a WSL environment, and ran some setup scripts I use
in other environments. Because
virt-what miss-identified a wsl environment as a 'hyperv' VM my scripts
made changes that broke the WSL environment.
It would be nice if virt-what would identify a wsl environment as 'wsl'
instead of 'hyperv'.
Per Microsoft this link it should be possible to detect wsl if the contents
of `/proc/version` has a value of `.*Microsoft$`.
