shell32: Make ShellExecute use native file association databases

I just proposed attached patch to the wine-patches mailing list.
This patch is based on initial work from Jeff Miller

This change adds a fallback path where an attempt is done to
open a file using the native file association databases before
giving up. On Linux environments the tool 'xdg-open' is used
for this, for Mac OS X environments the tool 'open' is used

Tested succesfully on a Fedora 17 environment using the start.exe
command and Outlook 2007 by trying to open a .pdf file (where there
is no file association registered inside the wine prefix)
