In particular the helper functions CreateCommonFreeLdrSections() and (Un)protectBootIni() are now removed from there (they are used in bldrsup.c only).
This should pave the way for future integration with other sorts of NT boot loaders (BootMgr and (u)EFI boot loader).
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74954
This concerns so far, only freeldr.ini and to an extent, boot.ini, but planning in the future to add support for registry-oriented BCD
as well as possibly direct (u)EFI entries, using the corresponding NT functions.
This code is so far only used in osdetect.c, but will be soon used by usetup's bootsup.c (note that some helper functions: CreateCommonFreeLdrSections()
and (Un)protectBootIni() are already taken from it and used in bldrsup.c).
- In EnumerateNTOSBootEntries(), continue enumerating the boot entries until the user callback returns an status code that is not successful.
- Remove some old code from osdetect.c; use directly BootEntry->FriendlyName when building the display names of the available installations, since now
BootEntry->FriendlyName is a PCWSTR (and not a UNICODE_STRING anymore).

[SETUPLIB] Make the NTOS_BOOT_ENTRY structure more generic, so that it can wrap around either actual NTOS boot entry options, or FreeLdr-like boot-sector options.
In a sense, the NTOS_BOOT_ENTRY structure now looks much more like the NT structure "BOOT_ENTRY".
- Adapt the code in bldrsup.c to these modifications, and re-enable FreeLdr-like boot-sector-file support code that was commented out.
More code cleanup will follow later.

- 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).

Also, trim any potential trailing path separator from the NT disk partition path before opening the partition object itself for read/write access.

- Don't hardcode the installer file name in ExpandInstallerPath() but
provide it from a parameter. Return TRUE/FALSE if the installer file
is/is not found.
- Expand any environment string present in the items command line.
- Enable/disable the menu buttons depending on whether or not an
associated command is present.
- Enable mirroring from resources.
- 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.
- Simplify the usage of the PUPDATE_PROGRESS callback.
- Add the possibility of specifying an initial non-zero StepCount when
creating the progress-bar (using the -Ex version), so that it can be
initially drawn with the expected initial count.
Of course ProgressSetStepCount() can continue to be used.
Updated the font substitutions to use the new Hebrew glyphs in the updated Tahoma font.
Also added substitution for the Ubuntu font to make the Lautus and Modern themes legible with Hebrew UI elements.

Improve the progress bar functions:
- Add a member in the struct, which will be used as a bar colour parameter for the new CreateProgressBarEx().
- CreateProgressBar() which will now invoke the Ex variant without the additional parameter.
- Improved Italian translation for USETUP, WELCOME, REACTOS, EXPLORER.
- Completed translation in SYSSETUP.
- Correct some characters encoding and text alignment in USETUP.
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.

- Use NT string safe functions.
- Add support for other bootloaders;
- Update a couple of comments;
- Remove deprecated __REACTOS__ #ifdefs.

- Call OpenAndMapFile() with its new ReadWrite parameter;
- Add informative comments in osdetect.c;
- In partlist.c, check whether a disk has a valid MBR by also checking for its 0xAA55 signature.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74712
- In DoesFileExist(): Call NtOpenFile with FILE_GENERIC_READ instead of the more generic GENERIC_READ access right.
- OpenAndMapFile(): Add support for opening & mapping files with write access (to be used latter).
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74710
- Split IniCacheLoad() and IniCacheSave() into: themselves & IniCacheLoadByHandle() and IniCacheSaveByHandle(),
respectively, so that we can load & save INI files if we already have an opened handle to them.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74711
- Remove a redundant NtClose() call;
- Return failure if NtQuerySymbolicLinkObject() fails;
- Use RTL_CONSTANT_STRING and RtlInitEmptyUnicodeString() where needed;
- Reduce code indent level;
- Add old-style function annotations;
- Remove the deprecated code copyright notice, since the copyright in usage is already reported in the COPYING file in the top level ReactOS source code directory.

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...

- 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.

- 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.
