Wine Gecko Installer @ 2nd boot

Hi!
I guess we need to vendor drop and add to our build this missing component.

I've always wondered why it wasn't included anyway, as not only ROS Explorer
uses it, any app that uses HTML needs it, and these are becoming
increasingly common.

copy or move it to your reactos/modules/optional/ directory. You may
need to mkdir optional in reactos/modules.

It's a artifact of Wine. They make it optional so that you can
override the builtin mshtml and friends, install the Windows IE and
use it.
