1. `SHGetPathFromIDListW` needing fixing, which was achieved, but...
2. ... then `SHBrowseForFolderW()` as-was returned `int` instead of a pointer
to the correct structure.
Trying to fix 2 has proven intractable:
a. Trying to cast the `int` return just results in `exception: access violation
reading <address>`.
b. Trying to define `SHBrowseForFolderW` properly, so it returns the correct
type results in a *writing* access violation when called, despite passing
the exact same data in as for the 'raw' call version.
So, this commit is a record, and I'm next going to try switching to
`IFileDialog` as recommended by the docs for `SHBrowseForFolderW` ('For
Windows Vista or later').
