Details
This would significantly reduce the maintenance burden for consumers of this library (particularly a11y).
I think that I should fix this before moving on to non-a11y work, as this would eliminate a whole bunch of esoteric crap such as ArrayData and typelibs.
This stems from some discoveries I made about how CoGetInterceptor works. In order to use OICF info, we need to do a few things:
1) Specify InterfaceHelperUser registry values;
2) Ensure that proxies are constructed via ole32!ComPs_NdrDllGetClassObject instead of rpcrt4!NdrDllGetClassObject.

A couple of challenges that make this project less than straightforward:
1) I don't think we should be setting InterfaceHelperUser registry values globally; this type of stuff should exist only within our own process;
2) We don't control all of the affected proxy DLLs that need alternate construction.
