[INCLUDE][SERVICES][WIN32K:NTUSER] Add an undocumented STARTF_INHERITDESKTOP flag
for the STARTUPINFO::dwFlags structure member, whose purpose is to tell Win32k
that the created handles to the window station and desktop to which the
process is connecting to, can be inherited by its child processes.
It is used when starting interactive services.
Observed via API monitoring on Windows 2003.
The PROCESS_DEVICEMAP_INFORMATION union has 2 fields, one is a handle, the other one is a structure of 36 bytes (independent of architecture). The handle forces 64 bit alignment on 64 bit builds, making the structure 4 bytes bigger than on 32 bit builds. The site is checked in NtQueryInformationProcess (case ProcessDeviceMap). The expected size on x64 is the size of the Query structure without alignment. autocheck correctly passes the site of the Query union member, while smss passes the full size of PROCESS_DEVICEMAP_INFORMATION. Packing the structure is not an option, since it is defined in public headers without packing. Using the original headers sizeof(PROCESS_DEVICEMAP_INFORMATION) is 0x28, sizeof(PROCESS_DEVICEMAP_INFORMATION::Query) is 0x24.
Fix vertical alignment and Aspect penalty; improve font penalty system; fixes for Wine tests.
This is an update of #706. See CORE-11536 for more details.
The display of the following programs is fixed:
- Total Commander 8.52 setup: font displayed too large - CORE-11620.
- Effective File Search 6.8.1 german localization text rendering issues - CORE-14378.
- Font garbage in register splash screen in Foxit Reader 7.1.5 - CORE-9767.
- Calipers-1 is not displayed correctly - CORE-14302.
- Some MSI-installers draw their dialogs too large (example: Click-N-Type Virtual Keyboard 3.03.0412) - CORE-13161.
- Irfanview 4.50: font in zoom combobox displayed too large - CORE-14396.
- Rufus: The window and controls are displayed larger than necessary - CORE-14461.
Particular DIR commands like: "DIR .", "DIR .." now work as expected,
and we also correctly fix the behavior for files without extension,
that r38746 (2b06cfc0) originally tried to fix but broke the previous
examples.
Therefore "DIR *." and "DIR noextfile." work too.
Pathological cases like "DIR \...", "DIR \...\.", "DIR ..\...\.." and
the like (and with more than 3 dots) now work as expected.

- Service bits are set by NetrServerSetServiceBits and can be retrieved by NetrServerGetInfo.
- The real name of function 42 is NetrServerSetServiceBitsEx and the real name of function 47 is NetrDfsSetServerInfo.
I found it unintuitive that each time I selected some software for installation, it wasn't automatically deselected after installation. I kept re-triggering the same installation a few times before I realized I had to manually uncheck the checked packages.
- Add support for the following command-line arguments: /k, /p (and a little bit
of /r), and add support for checking a particular volume.
A description of these arguments can be found at:

- Slightly improve some messages.
- Get rid of legacy OpenDirectory() and simplify GetFileSystem().
NDK: Define PLUGPLAY_CONTROL_PROPERTY_DATA.Properties and PLUGPLAY_CONTROL_DEVICE_RELATIONS_DATA.Relations values.
NTOSKRNL: Map PLUGPLAY_CONTROL_PROPERTY_DATA.Properties values to IoGetDeviceProperty properties and add (dummy) code for unsupported cases.
UMPNPMGR: Use PLUGPLAY_CONTROL_PROPERTY_DATA.Properties values in PNP_GetDeviceRegProp.
The keyboard shortcuts Win+D and Win+M are also enabled.
- Implement IShellDispatch4::ToggleDesktop().
- Implement some commands in CTrayWindow.
- Add "sdk/include/reactos/traycmd.h" for tray commands.
- Fix task window switching.
- Improve the user32!SwitchToThisWindow() function and use it.

This effectively removes the temporary hacks introduced in r73486 (a35a785b)
and in r73487 (0ce031f7) for the LocalService and NetworkService accounts.
Now these accounts (and their corresponding user profiles) are created
on the fly, the first time a service that needs these is started.
The code introduced in r73501 (ade0d2cd) is now re-enabled: this has
been made possible thanks to commit f42b4bbe (thanks Eric!).

- Improved Italian translation for USETUP, WELCOME, REACTOS, EXPLORER.
- Completed translation in SYSSETUP.
- Correct some characters encoding and text alignment in USETUP.
Implement mshta.exe. It links directly to the function RunHTMLApplication in mshtml and passes the file name and other optional arguments along. While the function is unimplemented in mshtml, it's a start.
[MSHTML] Add ADD_IMPORTLIB to CMakeLists so mshta can link to mshtml.
[BOOTDATA] Add the association information for mshta.exe to the registry.
DIRECTORY_ALL_ACCESS is not the correct flag, because it is used with the NtCreateDirectoryObject API
that creates virtual "directories" in the NT object namespace; that's not our purpose here.

So far we only have:
- a function FindNTOSBootLoader() that detects the existence of a given boot loader;
- a function EnumerateNTOSBootEntries() (and corresponding helpers) that enumerate the different boot entries in the configuration file(s) for a given boot loader, and for each entry, calls a user-provided callback.
Only supported at the moment: ntldr and freeldr.
Doing that allows me to simplify large portions of the NT-OS detection code so that it becomes more bootloader-agnostic, and this will help me for simplifying some parts of usetup/bootsup.c too, later...
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74661
- 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"...

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.

- filesup.c's functions ConcatPaths(), Does[Path|File]Exist(), NtPathToDiskPartComponents(), OpenAndMapFile(), UnMapFile();
- Move the inicache library to setuplib as it'll be used for the 1st stage GUI setup too (indeed, there is no good INI file API
under Win32; the Win32 profile "API" is just good enough to manipulate the win16 ini files, and are here anyways for backward
compatibility purposes only);
- Move the OS detector too.
- Remove the duplicated ConcatPaths() code in arcname.c.

- Introduce two small helpers to change and restore the console title.
- Console title can change even when internal commands are executed.
- Note that when commands are run from within batch files, title is unchanged.
- When "cmd.exe /c command" is run, the console title is unchanged; however
when "cmd.exe /k command" is run, the console title changes.
- In the partlist.c disk getters: Remove useless "IsListEmpty(&List->DiskListHead)" checks, because this is actually the kind of check the while() loop does just after...
- Fix few DPRINTs.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74629
- Improve FindExistingNTOSInstall() so that we can find an existing installation either by system root
ARC path or NT path. This is used during the enumeration of available installations from the boot.ini/freeldr.ini
and during other existence & validity checks of NTOS installations.
- Improve AddNTOSInstallation() so that we can save the system root ARC path and NT path of the installation,
as well as its partition entry structure pointer, for caching & later retrieval purposes.
- Remove some deprecated comments & todos, and implement other todos.
- Improve the output of some DPRINTs.
- Fix the return value of FindSubStrI.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74632
- isspace('\0') returns FALSE anyways so no need to separately test for a NULL character;
- The (str/wcs)toul function cannot return a NULL pointer from its second paramter;
- VersionInfo32_FindChild(): the third argument is indeed a number of characters (not bytes),
so rename the parameter to make this fact clear. The function is however correctly used within this module.

In all the disks/partitions available, it searches for the presence of freeldr.ini / boot.ini, open & parse them,
and enumerates the available boot entries (as candidates for installations). For each of them, it maps their ARC paths
into the NT namespace (hence the ARC 2 NT path resolver committed in r74621), then attempts to detect in these paths
the existence of NTOS installations.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74622
The NT path resolver allows mapping between an ARC path as specified in freeldr.ini / boot.ini , to its corresponding NT path, if possible.
Currently, only the mapping direction "ARC to NT" is implemented. It will be used wherever such mappings are needed, for example when identifying
the ReactOS / Windows installations from the available freeldr.ini / boot.ini entries (for upgrading / repair purposes).
The resolver supports the usual ARC paths: multi()disk()[r|f]disk()[partition()] ; eisa()disk()[r|f]disk()[partition()] ; multi()disk()cdrom() ;
scsi()disk()[r|f]disk()[partition()] ; scsi()cdrom()fdisk() ; ramdisk(x) ; net(x) (actually reported as "unsupported" since it would map to some
path on some network), and the newly-introduced Win2k signature()disk()rdisk()[partition()].
The code is in work-in-progress status.
Some validation tests, that were used during the implementation of the resolver, have been added.
