Registry workaround

There's something wrong with the MS Shell Dlg font, as can be seen from GIMP's
error output:

(gimp-2.8.exe:34): Pango-WARNING **: couldn't load font "MS Shell Dlg
Not-Rotated 8", falling back to "Sans Not-Rotated 8", expect ugly output.

I believe MS Shell Dlg MUST be a TrueType (vector) font. Wine uses MS Sans
Serif, which is a raster font. Windows uses Microsoft Sans Serif, which is
TrueType but I don't think we're allowed to distribute it. If MS Shell Dlg is
overridden with DejaVu Sans, GIMP works perfectly and the Pango warning
disappears. But if MS Shell Dlg is overridden with Fixedsys (another raster
font) the same problem occurs.

So the solution is: Wine needs to pick a TrueType font to use for MS Shell Dlg.
We should probably also provide a default replacement for Microsoft Sans Serif.
