Attachment: patch for winmo emulator exit code fix

the failure in the acceptance tests in buildbot is due to an i/o error where the wmrunner.exe has not created the .exitcode file when the wmemulatorshell.py looks for it.  Added a retry logic to wmemulatorshell.py to look for the exitcode file for a period of time.  If not .exitcode file is found retry the test on a new emulator (the standard retry logic).  I changed the exitcode file to be per file instead of once per emulator.  I believe this will fix the intermittent failing emulator test problems.
