Attachment: activex embedding flash hack

On Windows CE, there's an ActiveX flash plugin that we can use with some hacks to our activex stuff.  As this is pretty unmaintained (and generally undesired), this code doesn't make an attempt to be pretty for the flash masquerading piece; but it's all ifdef'd, and only defined on Windows CE.

Attachment: flash shunt code

Most of this is NPTOB in the activex plugin code, except for:

- Make MOZ_ACTIVEX_SCRIPTING_SUPPORT off by default, and change the disable flag to an enable.  This is broken on the trunk anyway, and we don't ship it -- no need to keep compiling it.  As soon as we can, we should nuke all the activex stuff.

- WINCE hack in xpcprivate.h to work around a Windows CE ATL bug (calling GetProcAddressA with wchar_t)

- some misc stuff in xpconnect's idispatch support to avoid using non-wince methods
