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.
- 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!
- Add support for '/' switch characters.
- Add '-?' switch.
TEMPORARY:
- Add a '-u' switch to generate hive file names in uppercase (by default
we keep these in lowercase). Should help in fixing GCCLin builder.
[CMAKE] Fix expected file name case. Should help in fixing GCCLin builder.
This commit is needed for building a single bootcd registry hive. It will also enable 1-st stage setup to have a proper registry present as done on Windows.

Note that the mkhive commands should really depend on the generated UTF16 INF files since the latter are those that are actually used as input for mkhive.
Otherwise, the mkhive calls & the UTF16 INF file conversion is not serialized and we can generate "corrupted" hives due to the fact that mkhive is using
INF files that are in the process of being (and therefore, only partially) generated.

Instead of loading systemcompatible.manifest as the implicit activation context, load forwardcompatible.manifest
Add a new assembly containing all apisets called ReactOS.Apisets and make it a dependency to forwardcompatible.manifest
I use a (not yet used) dir-id value of "80" for this purpose (the value
"8" being already used for /bin/testdata/ and of course values from 9 up
to 50+ are also already used... >_>).
