Subject: Win32 filetype dialog (Bug 376)

Hi everyone,
Please take a look at this patch that I've got that pops up a dialog on
startup (Win32 only) if the .abw and .zabw filetypes are owned by any
other application. This is not a complete implementation, and I won't
be able to get it to be complete. Here's what it does:
If there are two installations of AbiWord, then the installation that
doesn't own the filetypes asks if it should grab them. There is a
checkbox in the dialog that says "Never ask again".
What it doesn't do:
Actually grab the filetype.
International text (I tried, but I think that the registry checking code
comes before the StringSet is built).
Preferences (it doesn't remember or check if you say "Never ask again")
There are other registry checks we should do, but they're not done yet.
See bug 376(http://www.abisource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=376) for
more information.
Bruce Pearson did all of the hard part. Please review and commit when
you guys feel that it's right.
