Previously, if Windows Agent couldn't find files matching to an entry with a glob pattern of fileinfo section, then the Agent wrote nothing and Check MK monitoring site may wrongly decide, that the service doesn't exist.

Now fileinfo generates such entries always. If no files match to
a glob pattern in config, then the Agent creates a line with keyword missing.
