[PATCH][RFC] msctf: Remove incorrect dereference of double pointer.

This is my attempt at a fix for Helldivers crashing on startup.
This is my first Wine patch and I don't know the msctf system.
I'm removing a dereference because it *seems* like the right
thing to do. It seems to pass the msctf tests on my Arch box.
If someone with more knowledge of msctf can give this a review
and see if it's sane that would be appreciated.

--------Patch below--------

Fixes https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41252

ThreadMgr_QueryInterface is expecting ppvOut to be a pointer to a pointer.
When UIElementMgr_QueryInterface calls the ThreadMgr_QueryInterface
function it derefences the void **ppvOut making it a void *ppvOut
when passing it in. When ThreadMgr_QueryInterface attempts to dereference
this pointer to assign a pointer to it, it is instead accessing the value ppvOut
is suppose to be pointing at. When the pointer ppvOut points to is
NULL this causes a null pointer dereference

Tested on Arch Linux
