[PATCH] winex11: Send SC_KEYMENU on managed windows.

This is a rebased version of attachment 37818 with the todo's fixed.

I know that Dmitry Timoshkov opposed this patch because he thought that it
would be too confusing to display Wine's system menu instead of the window
manager's system menu. However, as far as I can tell, removing this block of
code does not make it any easier or harder to access Wine's system menu. Simply
tapping Alt does not open the system menu on Wine or Windows, although Wine's
system menu can be opened by tapping Alt, then tapping Down (just like on
Windows). Furthermore, as long as you use a window manager such as fvwm that
doesn't have an Alt+Space keybinding, Alt+Space also already opens Wine's
system menu.

You can see what I'm talking about by running `wine uninstaller` or any other
program that has a system menu but not an application menu.
