Fixed bugs for patch 01.

More stable and checked OWL;
Include all changes from OWL 5.02/5.3 and OCF5.02/5.3
Installer from OWL 5.01/5.02
Include patch for OCF 5.01/5.02
Includes new OWLExt library from OWL Dev group.
New powerful patch engine and new GUI Installer.
I had done a hard work to allow seamless integration of OWL 6.0 with you project., There are dummy directories classlib, winsys, osl, services with the same files as in BC install but them remapped your call to new right files. You have to do only one change: include path to OWL 6.0 before path to BC include.
Revised TRecentFiles class, now it can use registry and use TFileName.Squeezed() for visible part..
Rewritten function Squeezed() of TFileName now it do smart shortening of file name:
input c:\Program Files\Common Files\somefile.ttt   file len 30 char
output  c:\Program Files\...\somefile
input c:\Program Files\Common Files\Some dir\somefile.ttt  file len 30 char
output  c:\Program Files\...\Some dir\somefile
Revised TFileNameIterator class.
Full support for 64/128 arithmetic's, uses native support if available.
New STL like templates for backward support, and partly for internal use.

Fixed bug in handling WM_MAXIMIZE event, bug from OWL 6.0, was due to not checked bug-fix.
