Document how to generate Hyper-V provider from existing boxes

[FranklinYu]

The box win2012r2-x64-nocm supports three providers: VirtualBox, VMware Fusion, and Hyper-V. I can find the source for VirtualBox and VMware Fusion, but not the one for Hyper-V. Would be cool if source for Hyper-V is also shared.

@FranklinYu I believe @gep13 created that - I'm not sure where it might be - but it was simply done by running something (I don't know what anymore) against the vbox image that converted it to Hyper-V IIRC. Hope this helps.

@FranklinYu the base box that I created was done by following the process that is laid out in this blog post from @mwrock:

For creating base boxes for all providers, probably the best solution I have seen is shown here:

Ok, that doesn’t seem to belong to this repository. Closing.

Could be something we could simply put in the readme, so folks know how to do it?

@ferventcoder Yes, please! That would help future readers.
