Summary: PatchGroup adds unexpected attribute

Initial Comment:

If a file is specified with the PatchGroup attribute set, 
this results in the file having the 
msidbFileAttributesPatchAdded attribute set in the final 
msi package.

The MSDN docs state that this should only be set by a 
patch and when the file is added by that patch. 
 
Comments by Carolyn Napier in the platformsdk.msi 
group indicates that this should never be authored into 
an msi file manually (see 
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.platform
sdk.msi/browse_thread/thread/72d8e61ae932f169/bac7c
bde290fc330?
lnk=st&q=msidbFileAttributesPatchAdded&rnum=3&hl=
en#bac7cbde290fc330 ) but that this attribute is added 
automatically by PatchWiz when needed. 

A msi package with this bit set will fail validation by 
ICE45.
