* [USETUP] Implement the internal MUI routines for text manipulation based on its ID and implement text resource based IDs
USETUP (the 1st stage text mode setup module) bases upon MUI (Multilingual User Interface) sub-component of USETUP which is responsible for the ability into translating the MUI pages (each page having corresponding properties like X, Y coordinates, text flags and text string buffer) in various languages.
The only problem, as of now, is that whenever you want to modify a certain property of a page, such as removing a text from the said page in the screen, you've got to rely on using CONSOLE_* specific functions and calling with hardcoded parameters, namely the coordinates.
This can become a problem as not every localized (translated) MUI page has the same properties for each language and this could lead to various issues. Therefore, assigning each entry with an ID you can remove a text by only giving its ID (and the entry page number) without having the need to specify the coordinates
as the internal MUI routine, MUIGetEntry(), automatically retrieves the entry with respective data fields.
The following commit implements:
- MUIGetEntry()
- MUIClearText()
- MUIClearStyledText()
- MUISetText()
- MUISetStyledText()
- Now the X and Y coordinate members of MUI_ENTRY are of SHORT integer type, for the sake of the general code as most of the coordination values, even the COORD structure itself, has the coordination points as SHORTs and not BYTEs.
The following MUI functions will be used to manipulate text based resources depending on their ID from the corresponding MUI entry.
* [USETUP] Make CONSOLE_ClearTextXY function public so that we can use across other files.
* [USETUP] Implement the IDs for each text MUI entry in locale files.
This mechanism follows the same principle of resource IDs in Win32 applications. Static text is merely a resource that doesn't get changed programmatically for whole of its lifetime whereas dynamic resources can change during the lifetime of the program depending on the algorithm (for example, hide that piece of text and set another one, etc.).
* [USETUP] Remove the "Press ENTER to continue" message prompt when the partition formatting begins.

This fixes display reset transition when an external module acquired
INBV ownership and then released it, similarly to what was done in
commit 0ad65796 for VIDEOPRT.
For this a backup screenbuffer is used to store the contents of the
screen just before an INBV screen acquire transition, and these contents
are restored when it is detected that INBV ownership has been released.
Also, the active text font associated with the active console code-page
is restored, as well as the cursor state and shape.
In addition, any user of BLUE.SYS is now required to explicitly issue
a new IOCTL_CONSOLE_RESET_SCREEN to either enable or disable the screen.
This allows avoiding nasty unwanted screen mode switches when a handle
to the \Device\BlueScreen device is opened but no screen mode switch was
actually wanted - This "fixes" this annoyance on ReactOS and Windows,
when these are running witha VGA-compatible video driver and one wants
to look at properties of the \Device\BlueScreen device using
Sysinternals' WinObj.
Following this, we don't need to check anymore for explicit INBV
ownership by issuing calls to InbvCheckDisplayOwnership(), but instead
we check whether the screen has beeen manually enabled using the
aforementioned IOCTL. This partly supersedes commit 8b553a4b, and allows
fixing the second bug, namely that if we start ReactOS without the
/NOGUIBOOT option (and thus, INBV is active during boot), USETUP would
not show up anything because BLUE.SYS wouldn't display anything on screen.
See CORE-15901.
[USETUP][CONSRV] Call IOCTL_CONSOLE_RESET_SCREEN to tell BlueScreen device to enable the screen.
Rewrite LoadDataFromRegistry() and SaveDataToRegistry() as function helpers. With these, we'll be able to load and save data to registry on our choice.
* [NETSTAT] Restore expected output formats
"Revert" parts of bd3c852012.
CORE-16119
* [NETSTAT] Improve default and ICMPv4 output formats
* [NETSTAT] Fix a few typos, in output strings
* [NETSTAT] Output usage to StdErr
* [NETSTAT] Be more explicit about unimplemented -b/-t/-v options
- Move the hosts file handling from dnsapi.dll to the resolver service. Now, the hosts file is no longer parsed on each query.
- Add support for DNS_QUERY_WIRE_ONLY and DNS_QUERY_NO_WIRE_QUERY flags to R_ResolverQuery.
- GetCurrentTimeInSeconds() should return DWORD instead of DNS_STATUS.
200 ms would mean that the LEDs redraw each 0,2 second and this adds a slight delay. This can be seen if you press the Num lock key (for example) many times in a row and the LED resources won't update instantly. Therefore reducing the value of uElapse should significantly decrease the delay and the LEDs should update in a realistic way. Furthermore, before invalidating the LED resource check the toggle state of the keys.
