[python-win32] Using native COM interfaces

[Mark Hammond]

If these interfaces are described in a type library, you can do it now with
the latest versions of ActivePython/win32all.  If not, you really need to
use makegw or SWIG to build a custom .pyd with that support built in - all
.pyd files under the win32com directly do exactly that.
