Summary: Improve platform.py usability on Windows
Initial Comment:
This patch modifies platform.py to remove most of the dependencies on pywin32,
and use the standard ctypes and _winreg modules instead. It also adds support
for Windows CE.

1. Yes this is intended for 2.6
2. The only difference between win32api.RegQueryValueEx and
_winreg.QueryValueEx seems to be that the latter returns Unicode strings. I
have adjusted the patch to be more compatible with the old behaviour.
3. I have updated the doc string in the new patch.
File Added: platform-wince-2.diff

( win32api.RegQueryValueEx is _winreg.QueryValueEx ) ?
If not, it should wait for 2.6, and there should be an entry in what's
new. (I suppose similar concerns exist for other return classes.)
The change to win32_ver only half-corrects the return type to the
four-tuple. The meaning of release (even if it is just "release name")
should be specified in the text.
def win32_ver(release='',version='',csd='',ptype=''):
""" Get additional version information from the Windows Registry
- and return a tuple (version,csd,ptype) referring to version
+ and return a tuple (release,version,csd,ptype) referring to
version
number, CSD level and OS type (multi/single
processor).
