/**
* @name K32LoadStringExW
* Loads a string resource from the executable file associated with a
* specified module, copies the string into a buffer, and appends a
* terminating null character.
* This is basically the LoadString() API ripped from user32.dll to
* remove any dependency of ConUtils from user32.dll, and to add support
* for loading strings from other languages than the current one.
*
* @param[in] hInstance
* Optional handle to an instance of the module whose executable file
* contains the string resource. Can be set to NULL to get the handle
* to the application itself.
*
* @param[in] uID
* The identifier of the string to be loaded.
*
* @param[in] LanguageId
* The language identifier of the resource. If this parameter is
* <tt>MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, SUBLANG_NEUTRAL)</tt>, the current language
* associated with the calling thread is used. To specify a language other
* than the current language, use the @c MAKELANGID macro to create this
* parameter.
*
* @param[out] lpBuffer
* The buffer that receives the string. Must be of sufficient length
* to hold a pointer (8 bytes).
*
* @param[in] nBufferMax
* The size of the buffer, in characters. The string is truncated and
* NULL-terminated if it is longer than the number of characters specified.
* If this parameter is 0, then @p lpBuffer receives a read-only pointer
* to the resource itself.
*
* @return
* If the function succeeds, the return value is the number of characters
* copied into the buffer, not including the terminating null character,
* or zero if the string resource does not exist. To get extended error
* information, call GetLastError().
*

/**
* @name FormatMessageSafeW
* Loads and formats a message string. The function requires a message
* definition as input. The message definition can come from a buffer
* passed to the function. It can come from a message table resource in
* an already-loaded module, or the caller can ask the function to search
* the system's message table resource(s) for the message definition.
* Please refer to the Win32 FormatMessage() function for more details.
*
* @param[in] dwFlags
* The formatting options, and how to interpret the @p lpSource parameter.
* See FormatMessage() for more details.
*
* @param[in] lpSource
* The location of the message definition. The type of this parameter
* depends upon the settings in the @p dwFlags parameter.
*
* @param[in] dwMessageId
* The message identifier for the requested message. This parameter
* is ignored if @p dwFlags includes @b FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_STRING.
*
* @param[in] dwLanguageId
* The language identifier for the requested message. This parameter
* is ignored if @p dwFlags includes @b FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_STRING.
*
* @param[out] lpBuffer
* A pointer to a buffer that receives the null-terminated string that
* specifies the formatted message. If @p dwFlags includes
* @b FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER, the function allocates a buffer
* using the LocalAlloc() function, and places the pointer to the buffer
* at the address specified in @p lpBuffer.
* This buffer cannot be larger than 64kB.
*
* @param[in] nSize
* If the @b FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER flag is not set, this parameter
* specifies the size of the output buffer, in @b TCHARs.
* If @b FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER is set, this parameter specifies
* the minimum number of @b TCHARs to allocate for an output buffer.
* The output buffer cannot be larger than 64kB.
*
* @param[in] Arguments
* Optional pointer to an array of values describing a variable number of
* arguments, depending on the message string. Each argument is used to
* replace an <em>insert sequence</em> in the message string.
* By default, the @p Arguments parameter is of type @c va_list*, initialized
* with va_start(). The state of the @c va_list argument is undefined upon
* return from the function. To use the @c va_list again, destroy the variable
* argument list pointer using va_end() and reinitialize it with va_start().
* If you do not have a pointer of type @c va_list*, then specify the
* @b FORMAT_MESSAGE_ARGUMENT_ARRAY flag and pass a pointer to an array
* of @c DWORD_PTR values; those values are input to the message formatted
* as the insert values. Each insert must have a corresponding element in
* the array.
*
* @return
* If the function succeeds, the return value is the number of characters
* copied into the buffer, not including the terminating null character,
* or zero if the string resource does not exist. To get extended error
* information, call GetLastError().
*
* @remark
* This function is a "safe" version of FormatMessage(), that does not
* crash if a malformed source string is retrieved and then being used
* for formatting. It basically wraps calls to FormatMessage() within SEH.
