[PATCH] wine.inf: Don't use DDE for winebrowser by default.

Recent versions of Windows (Windows 7 and newer) no longer use DDE by
default when ShellExec* APIs are used to open the types of files and
addresses that Wine ultimately handles using winebrowser.

In 2007, fe07efb3 changed wine.inf to reflect the default values on
Windows XP and earlier since some programs happened to rely on these
exact values (see Wine Bug 7953). Now, these are no longer the default
values on native and there are several programs (including the popular
games like Darksburg and Cyberpunk 2077) that rely on ShellExec* APIs
*not* attempting to start a DDE session when opening a URL, as doing so
will cause those programs to hang.

While this patch may cause older versions of certain programs to stop
working correctly with Wine, those versions of those programs would also
no longer work correctly with native Windows 7 or newer.
