The idea is reminiscent of the SetupCommitFileQueue() function:
filesystem volume operations are "queued" and processed via a
"commit queue".
The commit queue uses a user-specified callback, that is used to
interact with the user whenever an operation (filesystem formatting,
checking) is started, ended, or fails, for example by displaying
appropriate UI screens and choices, etc.
If East Asian people were unable
to see the Latin characters, it
becomes a barrier to mutual
understanding.
FontLink will break that barrier.

In addition, correctly set the type of extended partition being used,
depending on whether it is contained below or above the 1024-cylinder
boundary (tested on NT).
CORE-19575
For the time being, don't add read-only attribute for ease of testing
and modifying files, but it won't always stay this way.
For example, Windows sets its boot.ini (as well as NTLDR, NTDETECT.COM
etc.) as read-only (+ hidden and system) during its 1st-stage setup.
2nd-stage setup makes some adjustments in boot.ini but doesn't restore
its read-only attribute.
Windows tools that can modify boot.ini (i.e. msconfig.exe, bootcfg.exe,
and sysdm.cpl) **ALL** know how to remove the read-only attribute for
modifying boot.ini, before restoring it if needed.
The BootDrive and BootPartition values are deprecated, and support
for them will soon be removed from FreeLoader.
Add an helper function to migrate these values during ReactOS
(re)installation / update.
The support is so far enabled only for INI files (freeldr.ini, boot.ini).
May be subject to further improvements in the future.
Usage examples:
- When finding existing ReactOS or Windows installations, the boot store
should exist and is opened in read-only mode. Closing the boot store
doesn't store any temporary modifications made to it.
- When doing a clean installation, freeldr.ini is created in read-write
access.
- When installing with an existing freeldr.ini or boot.ini, they are
opened as existing files in read-write access.
- QueryBootStoreOptions(): De-duplicate code.
- SetBootStoreOpt(): Respect the FieldsToChange flag.
- BOOT_STORE_OPTIONS: Remove unused Version field and distinguish
between "Current" and "Next" BootEntryKey.
- If a section already exists, return the existing one. This allows
avoiding different section entries with the same name in the cache.
If an INI file has separate sections with the same name, their
contents (key-values) get merged into a unique section.
- If a key-value already exists, update its data value and return the
existing one. (Note that this may be subject to behaviour change in
the future.)
Retrieve the current ambient language and keyboard layout, that has been
chosen in the "General language and keyboard layout selection" dialog
when starting the LiveCD.
A more robust solution will be developed later.
- Make the Create*Partition helpers take a size in bytes, not in sectors.
This allows them to be easier to use by the caller, alleviating the
need for making the size conversion into sectors. Instead it is done
internally by the helpers.
- Introduce helper macros to easily retrieve the size of a partition
entry or a disk in bytes, from their internal representation in number
of sectors.
- The 'AutoCreate' variable being USETUP-specific, remove it from the
PARTENTRY structure and use instead a flag set into the 'New' member.
- Rename IsDiskSizeValid to IsPartitionLargeEnough, to better describe
what the function is for.
The reason is to avoid enforcing the usage of a specific list
container by the users of the setup library. This is a departure
of what I originally thought would be the best, in commits
92692eae3 (r74553), 8f2c4f7a6 (r75700)
This should actually make some parts of the GUI setup code simpler
(e.g. using the win32 comboboxes to store the list contents).
LangID is a LANGID and LayoutID is a KLID: keyboard layout ID.
See terminology at http://archives.miloush.net/michkap/archive/2004/11/27/270931.html
These tables of MUI_LAYOUTS for each language, correspond to the
intl.inf LCID map:
```
; List of locales.
; <LCID> = <Description>,<OEMCP>,<Language Group>,<langID:HKL pair>,<langID:HKL pair>,...
```
where:
- each MUI_LANGUAGE entry corresponds to one such locale description;
- each MUI_LAYOUTS entry corresponds to a <langID:HKL pair>.
See http://archives.miloush.net/michkap/archive/2006/10/14/825404.html
for some details.
NOTE: IDS_ADMINISTRATOR_NAME translation excluded for the time being.
It should be "Администратор", but bg-BG translation missing in samsrv.dll,
therefore don't translate it because otherwise this would introduce a mismatch
(samsrv falls back into english when translation is missing).

Based on CORE-19346 "segoe-ui-symbo.patch".
In order to display gender glyphs (U+2642 and
U+2640; ♂ and ♀), we add a font substitute from
"Segoe UI Symbol" to "Arial".
ReactOS Arial has many symbol glyphs, so I think
we can use it for "Segoe UI Symbol" font substitute.
The glyph size problem will be fixed in #6156.

- Respect the toggle key settings.
- Change the hot key settings in
base/setup/lib/mui.c.
- Revert IntDefWindowProc function about
Alt+Shift handling.
- Delete some code in
co_IntProcessKeyboardMessage for Alt+Shift
handling.
- Add IntGetNextKL, IntLanguageToggle, and
IntCheckLanguageToggle helper functions.
- Modify ProcessKeyEvent and
UserGetLanguageToggle functions to
support [Left Alt]+Shift and Ctrl+Shift.
- Improve WM_INPUTLANGCHANGEREQUEST
handling.
- Message handling shouldn't access kbswitch
directly.

- Use the same keypress 'C' to create either primary or logical partitions.
Their type is automatically determined, whether they are created in
general unpartitioned space, or space within an extended partition.
- Extensively adapt the translations to reflect these changes.
Do not do that yet for extended partitions (containers).
This is possible, because when creating partitions, we do that on
unpartitioned space that is already "tagged" as either being "logical"
or not, and the partition style is inherited from that.
The resulting code is simpler, yet working as it should.
This will also help in the future for supporting other platforms, where
the concept of "primary", "extended" and "logical" partitions do not
exist (basically all platforms except BIOS-based PC-AT).
Unify CREATE_{PRIMARY,EXTENDED,LOGICAL}_PARTITION_PAGE
(i.e. Create{Primary,Extended,Logical}PartitionPage() functions)
into a single CREATE_PARTITION_PAGE (i.e. CreatePartitionPage()).
A lot of code was duplicated there (display, size input, etc.) just
for calling ultimately the Create{Primary,Extended,Logical}Partition()
helper functions.
This will also help in the future for supporting other platforms, where
the concept of "primary", "extended" and "logical" partitions do not
exist (basically all platforms except BIOS-based PC-AT).
This allows to move this choice sooner in the process, thus having all
the user key presses at first, then all the actual installation going
without any key presses needed anymore... (that is, unless you wanted
to install the bootloader on a removable device. Then it will prompt
you there!)
- Additional "cosmetic"/future-proof changes: Rename all instances
of "floppy" in the bootloader install variables to "RemovableDisk"
because it would be great to have this install choice later.
- Layout adjustments in the translated bootloader pages.
- Skip bootloader installation on upgrades. The idea here is that if
we were able to find a ReactOS installation to upgrade, this means
we were able to find a valid bootloader + boot entry.
See also PR #5633.
This logic may be slightly improved in the future to detect whether
the underlying bootloader is FreeLdr and if so, only update its files.
But this is for the future.
Fix a typo, and add three forgotten error codes to pt-PT language.
