[NTOS] Do not perform hive write operations when we are not supposed to.

- When we are in LiveCD mode (more generally, when hives are shared), load
  the system hives as volatile.
- Ignore hive write operations when everything operates in read-only mode
  and just return success instead.
- Just return success on hive file I/O if no file is associated with a
  given hive. This happens when e.g. a CM hive has a primary but no log.
