Changelog:
advapi32.dll: Reduce Registry access to MAXIMUM_ALLOWED wherever possible
Makes read operation succeed on read/only Registry keys.
A little test program (not included, one-time test only since needs specific
Windows user configuration) has shown this is the behavior of Windows for non
administrative users. It is possible to RegOpenKey or RegCreateKey an existing
key but not to make any changes in it. Also RegCreateKey fails with access
denied if the key doesn't exist.
Changes from previous patch: generated with diff -p to show C functions
patched.
