Description
Hi, I found that DetourCodeFromPointer doesn't work propely for OutputDebugStringA on x64 platform because detour_skip_jmp doesn't handle rex.w (0x48) prefix before jmp [+imm32] (0xFF, 0x25, 0xXX, 0xXX, 0xXX, 0xXX). Could you please fix it?

Research direction
Start in src/detours.cpp around line 380, focusing on detour_skip_jmp as called by DetourCodeFromPointer. Reproduce the OutputDebugStringA case on x64 and verify that the reported rex.w-prefixed indirect jump is handled correctly.
