A few years ago, Wine-specific detection was added as an ugly hack to
work around shortcomings in the emulation layer. Probably it's best to
not special case this emulator versus that emulator versus the real
deal, but there were two arguments presented in the hack's favor:
1. Wine is useful and developers will appreciate being able to debug
stuff with it.
2. The existing KUSER_SHARED_DATA technique for gathering time is
undocumented, and we shouldn't be relying on it anyway, since
Microsoft might remove it without notice.
As it turns out, neither one of these are, at the time of writing, true.
(1) has been handled for some time by Wine with the introduction of the
commit entitled "ntdll: Create thread to update user_shared_data time
values when necessary". And (2) is in fact documented:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/ddi/content/ntddk/ns-ntddk-kuser_shared_data
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/debugger/-kuser
It's in use so widely by both third-party software (such as games, a
massive market segment) and by Microsoft binaries that removing it from
the operating system will basically never happen.
So with both issues taken care of, this commit simply gets rid of the
old hack.
