Purpose:
When doing a PXE BootCD installation, you may be left without networking, usb and a cd drive.
This adds an easy way to include a few or more files to the installation which are then present on the disk after the installation and which does not require any change to ReactOS source code/build script files (and no manual editing of boot/bootdata/packages/reactos.dff.in).
Proposed changes:
Adds a new modules/3rdparty folder which lets the files end up in C:\ReactOS\3rdParty ready for use.
Following r75518, we use the $winnt$.inf file (created in System32
by the 1st-stage installer) as the setup information file for the
2nd-stage setup for:
- retrieving the installation source media path;
- retrieving the unattended information that was copied from the
unattend.inf file from the installation source media.
The installation source media path is converted from NT format to
Win32 format for usage with Win32 functions and storage in the registry:
this is done by GetInstallSourceWin32(), which replaces the hackish
GetRosInstallCD() function.
The $winnt$.inf file is also updated, and the registry values "SourcePath"
and "ServicePackSourcePath" are created / updated in:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup .

Fixes crashes when the tool is compiled with Run-Time Checks enabled.
And thus should fix the MSVC buildbots!
Thanks to Pierre for having brought this issue to me.
CORE-15201
- Fix a bug in RegpCreateOrOpenKey() when we attempt to open an
non-existing (sub-)key.
- Check failure of RegCreateKeyExW() in CreateSymLink().
- Remove unneeded includes.
- Update few comments.
- Fix parsing of the options.
- Only uppercase the file name part and NOT the full path!
And do it in a way GCC-Linux correctly understands, aka.:
*ptr = toupper(*ptr); ++ptr;
but NOT!:
*ptr++ = toupper(*ptr);
(that last one worked on GCC-Win and MSVC).
[CMAKE] Let's keep SETUPREG.HIV and BCD hive file names in uppercase
(use the '-u' switch) while keeping the other ones in lowercase.
Should definitively fix GCCLin builder!
