Implement work-in-progress code that, when upgrading an existing
ReactOS installation, verifies whether the (existing) system registry
hives are valid (by loading & unloading them, this allows using the
built-in repair functionality if needed), or not.
If a given hive cannot be repaired successfully, it is backed up
(with a '.brk' extension, "brk" as "broken"), then is marked up for
recreation.
When all hives have been checked, if there are any hive that needs
to be recreated, we recreate its hive file, mount it, but we do *NOT*
mount the other valid existing hives for update. We create instead
dummy registry hives so that we can actually use, as the update code,
the same one as the one used when fully creating the registry hives
for a clean installation (of course, this choice can be improved later on).
The update code (i.e. the same as the registry clean-install one) then
adds the registry keys & values, either putting them in the dummy
registry hives (the ones that we don't want to recreate) or in the
registry hive that is recreated.
At the end, the (re)created registry hives are flushed back to disk,
and a copy of them (under a '.sav' extension) are created, so that they
can be used for restoration purposes if 2nd-stage (and up) goes berserk.
Extra fixes:
- Use the correct structure member field when initializing the
'InstallDir' variable, when performing an upgrade.
- CreateNestedKey() should be better analysed to see whether it correctly
creates the full registry path compatible with volatile/non-volatile keys
(under inspection).

The rationale is as follows.
We now have the 1st-stage ReactOS setup running with its own registry SYSTEM hive,
similarly to regular ROS running instances (livecd, regular installation...).
The ReactOS-specific SetInstallPathValue() hack, introduced in a76689e9 (r3794)
and 5f973ce0 (r3795), is removed. This hack told the kernel that, during the setup,
it had to "switch" the used registry hives and instead use the ones of the ROS
installation being prepared.
This was really hackish because this means, mixing between registry settings used only
for the setup running instance, that could use different registry settings
than the ones that should be set for the ROS installation being actually performed.
Also, note that in the case of a 1st-stage GUI setup, consisting in running the
LiveCD + the GUI setup program, this situation would be untenable. Note also that
for people willing to use the Setup*** functions exported by setupapi.dll to parse
the registry INF files to initialize the registry of the ROS installation being
prepared, this would be impossible either.
Hence the need to have offline registry modification functionality.

- Also, reserve a new field to display whether the disk is MBR or GPT-initialized.
- Adjust the code that used the "STRING_HDDINFOUNKx" string labels.
The extra slot added to some of the strings is to indicate whether the disk is MBR or GPT.
As attentive readers will notice, the code that "determines" whether the disk is either MBR or GPT
is of course just temporary: it's just a placeholder code that should currently just show "MBR".
Having the NoMbr flag mostly signifies that the disk is uninitialized. A GPT disk also has a MBR
but it's for "backcompatibility" / "protective" reasons (so that MBR-only tools would see the disk
as just a big 1-partitioned only disk with which they could barely do anything). A real involved test
for the nature of the disk should involve calling the correct IOCTLs in the disk detection code in partlist.c .
This is for the future (and when ReactOS will better support GPT disks).

- The "intro" page is renamed into the "Welcome" page, because its corresponding resource indeed is the welcome screen;
- Because the "setup start" page can only be displayed once, move it out of the while-loop, and use its result as the initial value of the 'Page' variable.
- Remove unneeded _PAGE_NUMBER_DEFINED guards;
- Add a DPRINT in the RepairUpdateFlag case of RegistryPage() (because we don't implement yet a correct upgrading or repairing of the registry).
- In InstallIntroPage(), display the page itself only if needed (i.e. after all the validation checks & repair/update or unattended checks are done). Similar modifications are done also in DeviceSettingsPage(), SelectPartitionPage()
- Turn both CheckUnattendedSetup() and UpdateKBLayout() into static functions.
- Fix the code of ScsiControllerPage() so that it can be compiled if needed, and add a dummy OemDriverPage().

- Convert almost all swprintf() into StringCchPrintfW() and wcscpy() into StringCchCopyW();
- Explicitly add a trailing path separator to the "\Device\HarddiskX\PartitionY(\)" paths
when they refer to FS directories (and not to partition objects);
- Remove useless (and half-buggy) "Remove trailing backslash" code.
With that, it is possible to install ReactOS in e.g. C:\ReactOS (as usual), C:\ReactOS\dir1\dir2 (as many dirs as you wish), and also in C:\ (yes yes!).
But in that latter case, a strange bug related to the registry arises...
Additionally:
- Adjust some comments;
- Add some debugging DPRINTs;
- The SetInstallPathValue() is part of the big hack I've mentioned in f51faa4a (r74709).

- Add the MUI ID resource.
- Implement the shutdown timeout progress bar function and the TimeOut string handler.
- Add the resource string to other resource languages.
- Adjust also its callers, adjust OpenAndMapFile() parameters.
- Related to that, simplify IsValidNTOSInstallation() parameters & introduce a IsValidNTOSInstallation_UStr()
that does the same, but takes a UNICODE_STRING instead.
- Simplify CheckForValidPEAndVendor().
Now only exactly 5 calls use the "old" 'DoesFileExist' syntax, using a temporarily auxiliary function "DoesFileExist_2"...
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74641
This allows building concatenated paths with an arbitrary number of separated components.
- Use the newly-introduced CombinePaths() and ConcatPaths() functions.
- Fix also few comments, and place some UNICODE_NULLs here & there.

- Use the previously-introduced 'PreparePartitionForFormatting()' function; set the FormatState of the newly-formatted partition to Formatted.
- Remove the hackish call to CreateFileSystemList() in SelectFileSystemPage().
- Move 'TempPartition' and 'FormatState' back to USETUP.
- Put large "case"-blocks into brackets.

- Create the beginnings of a "setuplib" library, whose aim is to be shared between the (currently existing) 1st-stage text-mode installer, and the (future) 1st-stage GUI installer.
- Finish to split the GenList and PartList codes into their UI part, which remain in usetup, and their algorithmic part, which go into setuplib.
- Move SetMountedDeviceValue into the PartList module.
- Split the FileSystem list code into its UI and the algorithmic part (which goes into setuplib under the name fsutil.c).
* The algo part is meant to be able to manage the filesystems available on the running system, similarly to what is mostly done (in scattered form) in fmifs, format, chkdsk / autochk codes...
It also manages the partition filesystem recognition, using OS routines.
* The UI part manages the FS list as it appears on screen, showing only the possible FSes that can be used to format the selected partition (a bit similar to what we do in the shell32's drive.c, etc...).
- Adapt the calling code to these changes.
- Remove some "host" code that was dating back from the dark old times.

This will allow to reuse it for the 1st-stage GUI setup too, while using another UI representation.
Add also two partition iterator functions: GetNextPartition and GetPrevPartition.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74554
The aim here is to decouple the UI-specific code from code that can be used by both the text-mode USETUP and a future 1st-stage GUI setup.
Indeed, the GenLists can actually be used in the 1st-stage GUI; and their contents be displayed inside ListBoxes/ListViews... (this is just one example amongst others).
Additionally (in usetup.c):
- Make both FormatPartitionPage and CheckFileSystemPage return PAGE_NUMBERs.
- Improve a couple of comments.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74553
- Document more some of the fields in the PARTENTRY, DISKETNRY and PARTLIST structures;
- Remove the redundant members "SystemDisk", "OriginalSystemDisk" and "TempDisk" in PARTLIST as these can be consistently deduced from the corresponding (Original)(System)(Temp)Partition members
(note that we however keep "CurrentDisk" alongside "CurrentPartition", see the comment in the code why we do it so).
- Adjust the rest of the code to take the removal of the redundant members into account. The 2nd parameter of GetNextUnformattedPartition() and GetNextUncheckedPartition() is now really optional.
- Introduce a SetPartitionType() helper to simplify the code that sets the partition type, which also automatically adjusts other internal variables of said partition in accordance.
- "Mounted" logical drives can have assigned letters too, registered in \DosDevices\.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74532
- ConcatPaths that concatenates paths (or a path and a file name);
- OpenAndMapFile (resp. UnMapFile), whose purpose is to open a file and map it in memory (resp. unmap it from memory).
- Add extra optional parameters to DoesPathExist and DoesFileExist: an optional "RootDirectory" handle and, for DoesFileExist only, an optional PathName.
- Close the opened file handles only on success.
