[python-win32] Reboot apis don't work in a NT service

[le dahut]

With "InitiateSystemShutdown" I get :
21, "Device is not ready."

with "WTSShutdownSystem" :
1702, "The binding handle is invalid."
but even if I don't logon, it reboots after approximately 15 loops of 2 
seconds but after reboot the machine is extremely slow and has a strange 
behavior

"ExitWindowsEx" does its job correctly excepted that the workstation is 
extremly slow and need a manual reboot to work fine...
