Summary: Warn user when patch contains changed non-keypath file

Initial Comment:
If a patch updates a component that has a key path file as well as a non-key 
path file then per Windows Installer rules the component will be patched only 
if the key path file has changed.

To prevent having to end up in a situation where a user might incorrectly 
update a non-key path file but not its associated key path file, WiX (Pyro) 
should issue a warning to the user telling them that even though the non-key 
path file and the component is part of the patch the file will not get replaced 
because the key path resource has not changed.

Can there be a warning about this? Eg.

"Component A's non-key path file has changed and was included in the patch but 
its associated key path file remained unchanged."
