RFC: New winetricks options --optin, --optout

[Jerome Leclanche]

Opted in. I don't use it as much anymore, but my most common verbs are
fontsmooth-rgb, python, mfc42, msxml6, dinput8, vcrun* (depends the
app) and firefox. Maybe also dotnet20/ie6/{core,all}fonts.

Reminds me, sound=audioio can be removed now. I'll send you a patch.
