[PATCH 1/8] kernel32: Implement GetVolumePathName.

I know it's been a while, but I'm back again with GetVolumePathName
support.  This appeases Steam in a variety of ways when a system has
multiple disks that Steam can see and use for libraries (Bug #38114).

The purpose of this function is to return the most fundamental path
without leaving a filesystem.  Steam uses this so that it can use
inode searches, without this functionality some
installations/validations will fail if the Steam Library is not on the
same drive as Steam itself (symlink'd to another location).  Without
the patch Steam will also prevent you from installing games or
creating libraries outside the primary library location.
