D3D8 Texture -> WineD3D

[Roderick Colenbrander]

I would have preferred to do the d3d8 move in one go too (one 12000 line 
patch) but Alexandre didn't like the idea. I'm now trying to cut the patch in 
small pieces. The surface and texture part were 'easy' but now it is becoming 
more complicated with the stateblock and device.
