Summary: No ShortName for RemoveFile entry

Initial Comment:
Using version 3.0.1814.0.

I have the following entry in a component.

<RemoveFile Id="RemoveFile1" Directory="Update" 
Name="UpdatedFiles.txt" On="uninstall" />

The generated .wixobj file from Candle does not 
include the "auto-generated" short name for the file 
and results in an ICE03 error during light.exe.  The 
other entries that support auto generated short names 
such as Directory and File work correctly.  Only 
RemoveFile seems to have a problem.

I can't use the @ShortName either.  If I add one, I get 
this message from candle.exe:
.\setup.wxs(19) : error CNDL0193 : The RemoveFile/@Name 
attribute's value, 'UpdatedFiles.bat', cannot be specified 
with attribute ShortName present.

If I remove @Name, it fails as well.

For now I just leave no short name and disable ICE03 in the 
linker.  It works fine for me that way.

Ugh, this is painful.  Ok, we're gonna have to carefully
look at the logic for validating wildcard-capable short file
names.  Right now it allows 16.3 but the MSI validation is
much smarter so its not happy with that.  For now, please
authoring RemoveFile/@ShortName as a workaround.  I'll look
into fixing this for the next weekly release - I've also
raised the priority a bit.
