Review Comment:
JNA stands for ["Java Native
Access"](https://github.com/java-native-access/jna). It allows a Java programm
to call functions provided by native libraries. JNA consists of two main parts:
JNA itself provides the glue layer from Java to native and JNA platform
contains bindings for several libraries.
For the registry access the library in question is `Advapi32.dll`, this
library provides `RegQueryValueEx` to access the registry values. JNA platform
adds some memory handling and error detection and exposes that as
`registryGetStringValue`.
Here is a unittest excercising the registry APIs:
