Optionally map the unix filesystem instead of drive letters into the shell namespace

This patch adds the option to display the unix fileystem in file dialogs 
instead of drive letters. I think it's pretty un-intrusive and it seems 
obvious that it will do no harm if wine is not configured to use it.

I chose to add a ShowUnixFilesystem option to wine's configuration. 
Conceptually, the unix filesystem stuff should work with all applications 
that browse the shell namespace in their file dialogs. So if it doesn't work 
for a certain application (which I'm pretty sure it does), this should be 
considered a bug in shfldr_unixfs.c. In my opinion this justifies to make 
ShowUnixFilesystem a global option. If you don't think so, then please 
consider this patch a proposal for a discussion on how this should be done.

I tested this with notepad, regedit, wordview97, emule, picassa2, dvd shrink 
and the ide of borland's bcc 5.02.

Changelog:
	Added a 'ShowUnixFilesystem' configuration option to show the unix filesystem 
in file dialogs

Bye,
