[dos] reinstate MS-DOS boot disk creation for Windows 10 and later platforms

Browse source 
* The BlackLotus malware shows that it is possible to download individual
  executables and DLLs straight from Microsoft's symbol servers, so we use
  that capability to download the missing Windows 8.1 'diskcopy.dll', that
  contains the flat floppy disk image with MS-DOS files we need. See:
  https://randomascii.wordpress.com/2013/03/09/symbols-the-microsoft-way/
* Also reorder entries in the "Boot selection" dropdown.
* Also use CreateFileWithTimeout() in GetLogicalName().
