Add support for NTVDMx64
                        
                        Yes, you can run 16-bit DOS doors on 64-bit (x64) Window
s now.
      
      Install NTVDMx64 (http://www.columbia.edu/~em36/ntvdmx64.html, it's not as
 onerous as it sounds) and re-enable DOS program support in SBBS (i.e. make sure
 "NO_DOS" is not in your sbbs.ini [bbs] Options value) and voila: DOS doors work
.
 
 This change adds an empty init routine to sbbsexec.dll since older versions of 
NTVDM (which NTVDMx64 is based on) required one. Also, the sbbsexec.dll should b
e located in your Synchronet "exec" directory when using NTVDMx64 (in addition t
o or instead of your Windows/System32 directory).
