[Vijay Kiran Kamuju (＠infyquest)]

Add the stub function D3DXComputeTangent based on the staging patch.
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41697
Since this will at least make the application go further.
Even though the implementation is based on documentation

Right, but that's only the case if this stub actually helps the application from the referenced bug, otherwise it's exactly the opposite. So I reiterate Zeb's question, does this MR improve the application's functionality in any way?
