if an ASI mod fails to load we should probably skip it, not abort, otherwise one bad ASI will ruin the rest, like some of our older ASIs

Does this work on DRM-free executables? Is Actionvation64 used?

Probably not. I could have it fall back to the old method if Activation64.dll is not found.

By hooking a function in the activator dll that is called after decryption and directly before it calls Winmain in the exe, we can ensure postload asis are able to hook functions prior to any MassEffect{1|2|3}.exe code is run.
