This fixes back journal in ReactOS "at low costs". Indeed,
because write are improperly aligned right now, journaling
just fails.
With that patch, Cc will take care of aligning writes and
journal will be written again. Because flush operations
happen at each and every write to the journal, we expect
changes to land on disk quickly (not as quickly as if
they were directly written). But that's a good trade off
between over engineering and fixing a broken feature.

This is a rather graceful approach compared to sysreg2's 3 minute timeout before killing and restarting the entire VM.
Since we added autochk for FAT filesystems, the filesystem is often "fixed" after a reset with the consequence that ReactOS doesn't boot up anymore.
The sysreg2 restart code still remains for handling tests causing BSODs.
- REVISION is now something like "0.4.7-dev-53-g1304b53" instead of "r12345".
- Change WINDOWS_NT_BANNER to better represent the ReactOS version and the reported NT version.
- Introduce REACTOS_COMMIT_HASH which contains the full 40-character commit hash (for comparing revisions, e.g. in rosautotest/testman).
