Hack to get the installer further

So I tried this app out today and the symptoms that I saw was that it got into
an infinite loop calling IDispatch::Invoke to remotely call a function that
calls MsiRecordReadStream.

This one was a real pain in the arse to debug due to the subtle nature of the
bug and the sheer amount of code being executed. It turns out that the bug is
that the value returned from that call isn't copied back into the memory that
was passed into the function.

This patch hacks up IDispatch_Invoke_Proxy to cope with the specific type of
byref type that is used by this installer. A more complete patch will have to
work for all byref types and analyse whether the parameters to the remote
function are used correctly.
