I should have been explicit, all current users of Burn will be broken when they
upgrade from WiX v3.8 (or less) to WiX v3.9. We don't do that in dot releases.
I think the change is fine, but to do so would require taking it in WiX v4
(where breaking changes are expected).

Since Apply already requires an HWnd, I actually don't think it's a big deal to
change Detect to require one, too.

1. Move the pull request to WiX v4.0 where we can "break" (in this case:
enhance) the Detect API as we see fit.
2. Add another method to the IBootstrapperEngine called
"DetectWIthUpdates()" or something (Jacob already proposed something like
"Detect2()" which is not high on my list of good names <smile/>).
Personally, I'm leaning towards option #1. Option #2 isn't completely horrible
but there are already ways to skip update detection (if it is slow, for
example) and adding a top level method seems overkill.
