Patch to create hal.dll placeholder with version resource to pass M$ hal checks

Hello,

yes this check is an annoying "feature" of some M$ updaters/QFEs.
You could try my patch I use for this kind of install check (BITS installer
requires this too).
It creates a placeholder hal.dll in system32 with appropriate version resource
to successfully pass this install step/check.

Don't forget to run "wineprefixcreate" after "make install" to update system32.

Regards
