Description:
------------
In certain error scenarios, PHP crashes with an access violation instead of reporting the error.

I have so far only identified one specific error that causes the crash, but there may well be others.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$wmiLocator = new COM("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator");
$wmi = $wmiLocator->ConnectServer(".","root/MicrosoftDNS");
$a_rr = $wmi->Get("MicrosoftDNS_AType");
$a_rr->CreateInstanceFromTextRepresentation("","example.com","[*already existent domain name*] IN A 127.0.0.1");

Expected result:
----------------
As indicated in the code, the crash only occurs when attempting to create a domain record that already exists in the DNS server.

The functionally equivalent VBScript code reports a "Generic failure" when the record already exists on the server.

Actual result:
--------------
Access Violation

Having done some investigation into this bug, it would appear that the problem is caused by the fact that the EXCEPINFO structure is not zeroed before being passed to IDispatch_Invoke (ext\com_dotnet\com_com.c:346)

The structure needs to be zeroed before passing to IDispatch_Invoke since the wbemdisp!SetException function calls SysFreeString on the string parameters of the EXCEPINFO structure if they aren't null.
