- 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.

- Add a NtPathToDiskPartComponents() helper, that takes in input a fully qualified NT path to a file on hard disk,
e.g.: \Device\Harddisk1\Partition2\foo\bar, and returns in output the disk number ('1'), the partition number ('2'),
and the the path component "\foo\bar" that is after the device-harddisk-partition identifier.
- Make the OpenAndMapFile() return the file size of the opened file.
Both of these additions will be used soon.
- Turn a isspace() call into a iswspace() one.

- 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.

This avoids the open failing on certain file systems where GENERIC_WRITE access would be denied
for a readonly file.
This is an addendum to 82f44a2.
CORE-14158
In such situation, try to drop the readonly attribute before overwritting the file.
This fixes setup not being able to overwrite FAT bootcode when reusing a FAT partition
already installed without reformatting.
